Good Night


At the end of the day

I am satisfied

My needs are met, and I am content to fall asleep

Things may not be perfect, some things are better left unsaid

These problems will always remain, but it’s late

It’s time to push them under the fraying carpet for another day

There are a million little things I have left undone

And I still have not learned how to write a proper essay

But I am satisfied

and Now it is time to fall asleep to the dreams of the next morning
