My eyes are moving up and to the right
I've been awake all day and all night
Caffeine is the enemy, but it's my only friend
I'm hyper to the point which it cannot extend
My fingers in a frenzy, my wrists i cannot calm
I have a river rapid flowing from the sweat on my palm
My legs are always shaking, my attention span is short
I need my coffee strong by the cup, ***, or quart
The time is going swiftly, the day is setting in
Just the perfect time for me to begin
I drink my the morning coffee every ten past the hour
I have to redo all my plans- leave, get dressed, then shower
The sun setting slowly, the moon is rising fast
I wonder how long without sleep i can last
The trouble with insomnia is the length that it'll take
I'm not really sleeping, but I'm not really awake
