All-Nighters
Self-destructive pursuit of life-long goals,
is how the story unfolds
Late nights,
gradually becoming early morning habits
Mental strife,
Accepting dedication and work instead of a social life
This exhaustion is a product of my own determined concoction
An evil easily accepted if success results frequently
Though it may shorten length of life,
Though it may decrease overall happiness for the time being,
Eventually it will pay off,
and I shall be happier than any king
