It’s 1 am, I’m wide awake  

Remembering a past mistake 


At 2 am, I hear a bell 

Reminding me how far I fell 


By 3 am, I ask for sleep 

While making vows I dare not keep 


Now 4 am becomes a blur 

As morning birds begin to stir 


At 5am it’s time to rise 

And rub my swollen, puffy eyes 


It’s 6am, the day's begun 

After a night of sleepless fun 


The coffee helps me forget 

My insomnia for a bit 

But I know, to my dismay

It will never go away
