Let me sleep

By caf

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Tip toe tip toeAll night longI turn down the musicor i turn off the songQuietly moved to the kitchenFor something to drinkNot making any noiseI get to the sinkWater pours softlyinto my GlassI go back to the computerby you i must passBut not making a soundnot even a peepI wouldn't want to wake you upnot from your precious sleepBut all fucking dayand even the morningwhat do i hearas I'm tossing and turningClang bang boomfrom all over the placeI might as well get upif that is the caseCause there's not need to sleepi don't even tryAll night I'm quiet for youAnd in the morning i ask myself whyI walk around all daywith sleep in my eyesYou ask why i'm groggyI say a few liesOh the cat woke me upor the alarm clock went offI think i might be sickand i'll fake a small coughAnything so you hearthat you're not why i'm upI'll just drink lots of coffeeGimme the pot it won't work from the cupCause i'm tired and pissed offsince i was so silentYou got your sleepand off you wentHere i am as awake as can beI'll sleep later onuntill your noise wakes me.This is another stupid one lol... I just had to do something because all night long i try to be so quite and no one wakes up.. but in the mornings lately i have been waking up to noise at like 6am. We'll call this another rant!
