sleep... how you elude me.

i can't get to sleep.

i went to bed at 12.05am or so... hoping to get the best out of the day tomorrow by catching a full 7 hours downtime, so that... well, i will be productive.

its 12.49am now. i'm feeling weird. like different parts of my body want different things. brain says ... many things. body says ache and pains and stuffy inner heat, eyes are dying but not quite there yet... but regardless. i can't sleep. 

this sucks. : |

I have a dear friend whom i am much jealous of at this moment... she takes all of 5 minutes to sleep. 5 minutes! i think i can count the number of times i've had that with my hands. 

ok maybe not. how the heck would i know how long i took to sleep. i only know when it takes forever.

oh gentle sweet and lovely sleep... how you elude me. 

i feel as an amourous lover, chasing a fair dame who does not want to be caught, for many reasons. but still i chase thee, still i try all the ways and means till i am enclosed within your embrace... to dwell in your depths till dawn arises, breaking the spell you have on me... oh dream of you and in you i dream, through the day till the night comes again... till we may once again be one...

as you can tell, i love sleep.

but apparently, sleep doesn't always love me. : /
