Hadn't been sleeping very well when I wrote it. Still not, really.","content":"I lay w'in the darkness,\n\ntrying in vain to sleep\n\nas tiredness makes me weep,\n\nand aches upon me press.\n\n  \n\nEarly to work, late to rise,\n\ntoiling away noon to night,\n\nall thoughts by morning, crosswise.\n\n  \n\nPerhaps this time I'll stay awake\n\nand bask in the first light's rays,\n\nor rest 'til the pain goes away,\n\nand be lulled by soft daybreak.\n\n  \n\nMy gaze shifts to the blinds,\n\nmy hands eager to share the light.\n\nFour hours later, I open my eyes.\n  \n  \n\n"}
