I am tired, Yet sleep eludes me. My eyes are bright with wakefulness. Wide awake, But yawning huge. Over-tired. Yawning constantly, I try to sleep. Only to be burdened with one hundred tasks. Things to do. Sleep evades me. No motivation. I'm just too tired. Working through my list of To Do's. I take break, fatigue over-comes me. Laying down, I try to snooze. Hours pass while sleep skips over me. Wide awake, With nothing to do. The world sleeps on, As I lay waiting. For the time when sleep will find me too.

Wakefulness
I am tired, Yet sleep eludes me. My eyes are bright with wakefulness. Wide awake, But yawning huge. Over-tired. Yawning constantly, I try to sleep. Only to be burdened with one hundred tasks. Things to do. Sleep evades me. No motivation. I'm just too tired. Working through my list of To Do's. I take break, fatigue over-comes me. Laying down, I try to snooze. Hours pass while sleep skips over me. Wide awake, With nothing to do. The world sleeps on, As I lay waiting. For the time when sleep will find me too.
I can't sleep. Like usuall and haven't written anything in a while. This is my first attempt at creativity in four years. I hope it doesn't **** and makes decent sense.
