I couldn’t sleep last night
I couldn’t sleep even an hour
I couldn’t sleep how hard I tried
With all my might and power
I remember being awake
Those eight hours I was alive
Ten, eleven, twelve, one
Two, three, four, five
I have ugly dark circles under my eyes
Now, how am I to go to school?
All I have to hope is that
My classmates think it’s cool!
