Well, this is totally random! ^_^ Lack of sleep does this to people, so here you are, an original poem by ME! This was done in Modern Western Civ class (GOD how I HATE Modern Western Civ) R&R if you care to, I would like to know what you think. Hate it or love it...tell me.

Exhaustion

Sleep befalls my weary eyes,

I want for nothing more than this.

Cut the fabric of reality ties,

And I'll slip into this sweet bliss.

"Fatigue, fatigue!" my body cries,

So I succumb to a maiden's kiss.

This sleep has such a pleasing guise,

And her target she will not miss.

In my ears, she whispers lies,

Then I'll see snakes that hiss,

Or a dog that dies,

Or someone whose name is Chris.

But I'll sit back and quietly oblige.

Her ideas I do not dismiss.

Sound asleep, my mind complies.

Oh, how I welcome the absurd abyss.

This is a result of not getting any sleep. Honestly, I did no get one second of sleep last night. Don't ask why, because I don't know. I dedicate this poem to insomniacs everywhere. If this is ONE night of sleeplessness, I could not imagine two or more. I really feel for you. You have all my sympathy. May you all find your own maiden.

PS: That "Chris" is no one I know. I chose that name because it rhymed. Don't shoot me, I couldn't think of anything else ^_^;; Also, the original has my full name signed at the end (of course), but I edited it because I don't wanna be stalked for obvious reasons Ahem, yes...*nervous laughter*
