sleep – Faking It Made

A Poem a Day: a Series – Day 211

Day 211: “Snoring Kills the Creative Buzz”

Sometimes I can’t think

When my boyfriend is snoring

Now is one of those times

And the unfortunate result

Is this poem

A Poem a Day: a Series – Day 150

Day 150: “I Don’t Know”

I don’t know how to be right now

Don’t know what to do

Where to look

What to say

I don’t know where I am right now

What I’m doing

Who I am

I don’t know

I should drink water

I’m getting a headache

Let me turn out the light and try to go some sleep

A Poem a Day: a Series – Day 144

Day 144: “Not My Day”

I don’t feel good today

I don’t feel great

I don’t feel like doing anything

I don’t feel like staying awake

I think I’ll close my eyes

Try to sleep it off

And hope for better tomorrow

A Poem a Day: a Series – Day 117

Day 117: “Sleep Beckons”

My body is reminding me

I need to slow down

Rest

Reset

I think I’ll listen

Close my eyes

Wake me up in 20 minutes

A Poem a Day: a Series – Day 94

Day 94: “Fatigue”

I’ve been at it for six days

Changing my life

I’m getting tired

Maybe I’ll just nap

But a break doesn’t mean the end

I’ve got more work to do

A Poem a Day: a Series – Day 22

Day 22: “The Art of Falling Asleep”

I conked when I got home

I must have been tired

Now I’m up and ready for bed

And I can’t get back to sleep

I’ll try counting sheep

Where’d that even come from anyway?
