Today was the first
day in a long time
where I succumbed to
the sandman’s sleep chime.
I do not know why,
but I had no choice.
I had to give in
to Sleep’s siren voice.
It must be the heat,
for the weather’s hot.
Plus, there’s now never
a time that it’s not.
I need cool weather
to reset my soul
or else it seems like
sleep will take control
