It is 12 a.m.
I am sleepy
But I must go back to my screen
Tick Tock …
It is 1 a.m.
I am in a state of deprivation
I should go to sleep
But something is stopping me
That thing is on my screen
I take a deep breath
I stare at my screen
Tick Tock…
It is 2 a.m.
Questions pop in my head
“Is this torture?”
“Can I survive on 5 hours of sleep?”
“Should I stop?”
I tell myself
Sleep is overrated
It is 2:15 a.m.
I am asleep
My screen is still bright and on
But my mind is off
I tried my best
But in the end
Sleep controls me
