Sleep

When sleep presses upon my eyes, I battle. It is for stubborn independence's sake--one part of me against another--that I fight for my mind's control over body. In the morning, my body wins But nighttime is thoughts' playground, and thought will not be cheated its game.

I am going to have to make my hubby read this. He really can't comprehend what I do when and why I stay up so late. Love it!
