A sleepy desire

Getting up in the morning
and getting out of bed
is the hardest thing to do.
Especially if you're a night owl.

And when you the street dogs growl.
Clearly, of when you spent
many sleepless nights trying to fix,
all your problems in one day.

You really have to tell yourself
that's not how life works.
Sometimes we have to promise
to ourselves, that time would heal us.

To sleep as fast as you switch off
the lights is a blessing. Clearly, I can
never sleep like that. But yeah, I'm
jealous of my brother. Who doesn't?

But today I'm gonna promise myself
that I need some good rest
before I push myself harder
doing things that I have to do.

I don't mind even if
I'm a light sleeper...
First things have to be done first
I should sleep to wake up
and not waking up to sleep again.
