Testing
Five, four, three, two, one
I should be going to sleep
Is anyone there?
It is hard to talk
To the precious one snoring
Sleeping so soundly
I toss and I turn
Trying to find real comfort
I take a deep breath
Foolish wandering
Leaves me wide awake tonight
Idigestion too!
What was I thinking?
Coffee, tea, and chocolate!
Drastic recipe
It does serve me right
Such indulgences all day
Have a consequence
Empty the full mind
Testing the limits of time
Will catch up with me
Tomorrow will come
Bringing new conversations
I must be ready
