Each day wears on, and still no end in sight,
I stay awake, a step away from ending
Up in bed and falling to the night.

For such sweet sleep, for all its hidden mending,
I yearn for it. A single thing forestalls
Those plans, the work of words that softly calls

My heart to pour out all the words still pending.

And with this final line, my rest's impending.
An indriso. Yep, it's that point in the poetry challenge where the late-night, better-squeeze-one-out-or-else-I'll-lose-my-momentum grind is in full swing. Hopefully I'll be able to recharge somehow, but sleep...oh how I need it. Written for day 18 of NaPoWriMo.
