Insomnia

Tue, 10/13/2015 - 10:19 -- Daovan
It's 5:56 in the afternoon 
I just came home from school
Most of my teachers were really on my ass today
Cause I
"Didn't seem excited about class like I usually am"
Or something like that
I couldn't hear all of what they said 
My eyelids were too heavy and each time I bat my eyelashes it sounded of lifting hard cardboard paper up and down real slow 
So 
I couldn't really understand them 
It's 8:43 pm
I'm watching trashy tv with pajamas on
Eating hot ramen noodles 
Avoiding mostly all my texts and calls because well
I barely get any 
Anyway 
It's
11:17 pm
I'm tired
I'm laying in my bed
My thoughts won't leave me the hell alone
It's
12:00 am
 I have a final on Tuesday 
Did I study ?
It's 
12:45 am
I'm studying 
Anything 
It's 3:00 am
I got bored and turned back on the tv to stare at something else than a poster of jimi Hendrix until it starts moving 
Playing gypsie boy and voodoo child
Shit lurking in the closet
I forgot to turn my mirror around
1-800-dial-a-h** ads are on
I wonder what their parents feel
It's 4:00 am
I still wonder how those girls on t.v have enough life in their eyes to look into the cameras and tell people to call them to have a fun time 
Infomercials are stupid
It's 6:00 am
SpongeBob's on
time to go to school 
It's 8:40 am
I forgot to do my homework .
