insomnia
As I fail
To sleep
Upon the
Passing hour
Long past bedtime
i lay awake. uneasy.
for i cannot sleep
and having been so damn
tired for so long i'm
too excited to go to bed
knowing full well i'm
burning years off my life
and forgoing morning productivity
for a drug not even worth taking
because there are no more stimulants
in my bloodstream yet
i'm inexplicably wired awake
a sword of Damocles hung over my head
for if it falls i will not recover
but why worry?
as i sit awake
hyperfixated
unable to rest
at my
desk
