SLEEP

A Poem by Akira

Wide awake, can't sleep;
The world on my shoulders I keep.
How I wish my dreams would take me captive.
I planned for this poem to be longer,
But my need to sleep is stronger.

Well done.
There is good even in the worst.
You missed sleep for some time,the world got a great poem in return.
Congratulations!!!
