Sleepiness

It began again.

That feeling of relaxation.

And drowsiness.


As I begin to feel all the stress slip away.

Along with my eyes.

Struggling to stay open.

Them wiggling and jolting.

To open and close

Consistently.


As I try to stay awake.

Despite my failings.

My body begins to shut down.

Paying extra attention

To the comfiness.

Of my snug bed.

and comfy pillows.


I begin to think of the day.

All the decisions made.

The mistakes,

Along with the good.


As I count to 10.

In my little mind.

Before it happens.


My thoughts begin to drift away.

Weightless as soft whispers.


The world fades to shadows.


As I glide down.

Gently.

Sinking into the realm of sweet slumber.
