Bedtime


Watch T.V. hours on end
Sitting, Laying in my bed
In which time does transcend
Just after moments like I said

Years of sleep seems like days
Gone in just a wink
Until those bright sun rays
When I hobble to the sink

Homework inside of it
My nose in a book
Eternity in just a small bit
Precious life from me it took

All time ceases
Goes as Bedtime Pace
My life and its pieces
Upon this pillow, my face

My Bedtime is now
Because it is so late
The Time in Bed is how
I survive impending fate
