wide awake at 2AM

I am wide awake, even though I went to bed at 10 PM. I woke up again at 1 AM. I couldnt go back to sleep. I am still exhausted though. So, I shall try for sleep again. First though I thought I’d try to write a little poem, about, sleep. So, here goes.

eyes saging
body dragging
I shut down the laptop
Make a toilet stop
Then into bed I hop
Sleep, sleep
I say
And my eyes drop

    You sleep very easily I guess…. In my case when I close my eyes, Its hard to escape from the thoughts…. It takes much time to get sleep after that…..

      Oh no, I don’t sleep easily at all, it’s just that I was so exhausted tonight that I fell asleep easily but normally it takes forever and sometimes I don’t sleep hardly at all only getting my like two hours

    Good poem!

    It’s 10:00 pm here now, I’m planning on going to bed at midnight, I’ve been having trouble sleeping lately, tonight I think I’m going to take some Benadryl just before turning the lights off, that usually helps.

      Good luck with that, I hope you sleep. It’s nearly 4 am here and then I went back to sleep but just woke up a few minutes ago
