Hating Slumber
Sleeping too much
Makes me lazy
And I hate myself.
Sleeping too little
Makes me unable to function well
And I hate myself.
Not sleeping at all
Makes me stupid
And I hate myself.
Sleeping the right amount
Doesn't help at all when
I'm still tired throughout the day
And I hate myself.
Sleeping at all
Can end up with me being late
For daily things I have to do
And I hate myself.
