each minute my eyes get heavier
struggling to keep them ajar
my body is tired begging me for sleep
but i continually refuse for some reason
so many people i forgot to text back
a pile of homework sits on my desk
chores go undone too weak to move
finally my body shuts down
on the bed i lie shoes still on my feet
hours later i awaken from my rest
only to find out its the next day
