It is a pressing time for us.

Datelines and expectations,

project work and promos.

Sleep, a luxury we oh so treasure.

Sapped of our energy,

we drag ourselves,

persevering this torment.

For in our minds,

it is not th surrounding darkness that fills.

But rather, the warm glowing light,

amidst soft fluffy pillows.

Think not of the panda lids,

weary eyes and dazed mind.

Lest we doom ourselves,

to reality and its crushing blow.
