Waning Wakefulness

I still need to write a sonnet tonight
but its 10 o'clock, and past my bedtime
the light from the ceiling glares oh so bright
and all I want is to finish my rhyme

Don't get me wrong, I love writing each day
but today I wish I'd started sooner
all of my wakefulness has gone away
I feel like I need a mental tuner

Please couldn't I just go backward in time
and start to write when I had time to spare?
I might be willing to spend a few dimes!
What do you mean I can't? That's just not fair!

I guess I'll just take this as a lesson
I'll start sooner tomorrow... no questions!
