Wasted
Drowsy,
Nights of dodging sleep, finally creeping up on me.
Tired,
Heavy limbs, screaming for longed-for rest.
Drained,
Energy depleted, barely enough left to get through the day.
Bleary-eyed,
Resolutely focused, the blinking monitor sat before me.
Temptation,
Needing to succumb, but slumberland seemed so far away.
