Caffeine

Who spiked my water?

Help!

I can’t sleep….

I think someone gave me

Caffeine!

It’s way past midnight

I should be tired

But I’m buzzing

From the days events

From the to do list

Still pending

I’m buzzing from life

😴💤😴

Don’t worry

Don’t fret for me

Another game

Until my eyes grow weary

Then I’ll sleep ‘til

The alarm blares and my eyes

Well, they’ll fight the morning

And I’ll pull the covers over my head

Hit the snooze and mumble

“Just 5 more minutes.”

😴💤😴

I’m not sure why I’m not sleeping tonight. I’ve barely made it past 11:30 the last few weeks. Whatever it is, I’m kind of glad. Yes! I’ll be tired tomorrow but I’m enjoying this quiet time. At least for the moment.
