Exhaustion

I'm not too fond of it.

I hate not having the energy

yet when I try to regain energy.

It goes away too fast.

I should not feel this way.

As much as I do.

Exhaustion.

I either sleep too little.

Or too much.

I wish I could balance it out enough.

But as a night owl.

That feels almost impossible.

Then I wake up randomly.

Late in the night.

My body clock out of wack.

Wishing I could go back to sleep.

Then I finally do.

Then I sleep too long.

And the cycle begins again.
