Sleepless

Here I sit a-pondering
Pondering late at night
Unable to sleep
Waiting for morning's light

So many things I need to do
So little time to find
That being sleepless late at night
Is not good for body or mind

Yet sleep eludes me
I cannot rest
The minutes slowly tick by

I close my eyes
And rest my head
While 'round and 'round thoughts fly

I need to sleep, I can't despair
The choice I now must make
The lights go off, my path is set
The morning headache I will take
