Sleep and School
It’s still light out.
I shouldn’t have fallen asleep so early.
She wakes me up and yells at me to eat.
It’s 6:00 pm.
But she can’t stop me from falling asleep on my homework at 7:00.
When I lie down,
There’s no stopping me!
I’m going to…
Fall asleep…
I have so much to do, but I…
Zzz…
I’m supposed to wake up at 6:00 am.
But I’ve been awake since I woke up at midnight.
I watched the sun rise, alone.
I didn’t do my homework.
I could have, but I never do.
