Exhaustion
Side effects reflect
Human being, beating heart

Apathy
Native to me
A cold, comfortable shell
To protect me from my hell

When sleep deprivation causes complications with the functionality of my brain
No longer can i feign
My worries
No longer will I hide
My fury

And if sleep is for the weak, I am lord of the meek
Words flow in an afterglow as I rest my head one inch above my pillow
Sleepless
A result of shyness
A result of not saying what I want to
A result of wanting so badly just to kiss you.
I want so badly just to sleep.
Wake up.
And see you.
