Sleep

It's cloudy outside
It's long hours
Life's getting boring
And paying attention
Is getting hard
Sleeping sound good
But temptation must be resisted

Late nights
Early mornings
Always a bad mix
Dull weather
Doesn't help
Headaches galore
I just want to sleep

Note: This is just one of a few variations of my "Sleep" poems

Resisting Temptation

It's been a blah day
My eyelids feel heavy
And the day's just begun
The surrounding people
Talk and talk
But their voices
Fade into the background
Until nothing seems to be there
And I fight to stay awake
Despite my exhaustion
The temptation to sleep
Is simply too hard to resist
But resist I must
And I might survive the day
