It's way way past what bedtime should be
What time even is that?
The neighborhood is quiet
The occasional drunk walks by
His path illuminated by crystals in the sky
I close my eyes and count imaginary sheep
One, two, three, four...
I'm bored. I sigh. I roll onto my front.
I wish I could shut down my thoughts
As easily as turning my laptop off.
Five, six, seven, eight...
My eyelids are dropping...
I groan. I reach to my bedside table.
I turn the alarm off.
Why do I always fall asleep
When it's time to wake up?
