3 am, and working…

Posted on by Shreya Joshi Posted in PoetryTagged , ,

Sleepy eyes, tired mind,
All I want is my bed.
It’s already 3 am,
And I really need my nap.
 
But deadlines to be met,
Projects to be wrapped,
I can’t sleep just yet,
I’m overloaded, swamped!
 
But oh wait, don’t pity me,
For having to stay awake.
I procrastinated all day,
So, I guess this is okay.
 
I binged on Young Sheldon,
Munching cinnamon buns,
Thinking about the pending tasks,
As I just lazily relax.
 
Now I’m burning the midnight oil,
Cribbing about how I have to toil,
Damn! I’m such a lazy person.
Bye! I gotta get work done!

      I’ll get to it dear. It’s 3:21 am here, and I’ve got so much to do… But I’d rather write stupid poems that actually work… 🤪🤪🤪Your Q&A shall be the first thing I do, as soon as I finish this. 😂😂

        Oh thank you very much dear
        That’s sounds tiring
        And I don’t think your poems are “stupid”
        They are absolutely amazing

    This is so relatable and well written! Procrastination is something we all wrestle with, but you have put a humorous spin on it while holding true to the repercussions. Well done, Shreya! Your poetry continues to shine! ❤🌹
