Poetry Hour

By Hannah LorrellePublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

Take this one an hour before bedtime

so sleep will come and claim you.

Don't kid yourself,

take this one at the same time every day.

Take this blue one in the mornings

it will keep your head above water.

This red one might give you a headache

but no worries take two of these and you'll be fine.

Take this one once a week

since you never go out in the sun.

Take this one a max of twice a day

when your anxiety gets the best of you.

Take this little orange one once a day

but don't drink grapefruit juice ever again.

Take this long white one

when you are having trouble concentrating.

Take this one an hour before bedtime

so sleep will come and claim you once more.
