A bit drowsy

A bit drowsy, I feel,

seeking rest, so I steal,

momentary glances, to have chance,

letting a yawn, or sneaking a nap. 


Eyelids heavy, ready to shut,

doesn't listen to orders or reasons,

like a gentle tug, that's pulling me,

into the world of sweet dreams. 


As my thoughts slows down,

senses become dull to the surroundings, 

so I slowly keep drifting away,

unable to maintain my composure. 


And I wish, to have an escape,

let sleep descend, like a soft embrace,

for, in slumber's lap, worries will cease, 

these weary eyes, find its release. 


Just a few moments more,

my work time will be over, 

and finally, I would be at home,

falling down, into my soft bed. 


Till then, let me try,

keeping open, my tired eyes,

let no lullaby or white noise,

act as a spoilsport...


And I will claim my rest,

surrendering body, to my bed.
