Too Tired

I’m almost too tired
For writing this poem.
The day’s almost over,
And I just got home.

So I’ll just jot down
A few thoughts from my head.
It won’t be a gem,
Just a sparkle instead.

My body is craving
Some hours of sleep,
So into my bed
I am ready to creep.

I’ll type up these words
And I’ll hurry to post,
Knowing these verses
Are weaker than most.

But still, I’ll have managed
To stick to my plan;
And thus, I continue
The job I began.
