Sleep, It comes to others but not me It stays just out of my grasp waiting taunting I yawn, I stretch, I beg of sleep, yet it does not come How have I offended sleep why does it not show itself? Others find sleep but not I and when I do it does not leave. When I want to be awake sleep holds me in its grasp It taunts me, it will not leave sleep makes me late and makes me mad yet does not care Sleep is my master yet others master sleep why can't I... Sleep
