#adequate
Too late in our efforts to give love so adequately, hoping to be loved back do we realize what was given back sufficiently were mere lies for they were more efficient and the truth was, we were never loved

Adequacy
most of us don't get enough sleep we're deprived of its good boon the right amount is eight hours deep then work days will beam of moon we're deprived of its good boon by not jumping under the quilt then work days will beam of moon at times we appear to wilt by not jumping under the quilt everyone of us are worn out at times we appear to wilt which isn't a super tale of spout everyone of us are worn out because we lack adequate rest which isn't a super tale of spout so to slumber long would be best because we lack adequate rest functioning can go on the blink so to slumber long would be best as we'll feel fresher in wink functioning can go on the blink the right amount is eight hours deep as we'll feel fresher in wink most of us don't get enough sleep

Sleep (Pantoum)
Another day, another to-do list Two pages long, fists start to clench Endless effort, you do your best And at the end of the day, some are left unchecked. You say: “I must do better tomorrow, I should have gotten more done, I really tried my hardest, But I only finished some.” A day full of work, but the tension remains Your clenched fists aren’t relieved Saying “only, but, should” and “must” Only minimize what was achieved. Perfection is ideal, but not attainable And that is okay. Do what you can, but take care of yourself. Tomorrow’s a new day.
