Oh elusive sleep
I want to lay down
Without making a peep
I long for rest
To slumber all night
Would sure be best
In bed I find no peace
Tossing and turning
Surely I need release
To sleep away the day
Would be so sweet
But for now I just lay
Oh wicked vexation
Let me snore so soundly
My mind has excitation
I will bide my time
Hoping sleep comes soon
So ends my rhyme
