DEAR MR. SLEEP,

Where have you gone, Mr. Sleep

In my youth we were married

Ten or 15 hours of your time

Was nothing to spend with me

Now our relationship is very strain

And this is causing me some fatigue and pain

Is it because in college I was unfaithful at times

You heard that near final exams

I had an affair with Mr. Coffee

This is no reason for near divorce Mr. Sleep

Mr. Coffee meant nothing to me

I have never left you

I have known you since my mother’s womb

And when I go to my tomb

Is it not your name that will be heard

So even in death we cannot part

Are you not my final curtain call

So Mr. Sleep, where are you?

These one or three hours of quantity time

Is not good quality time for us two

Don’t worry about Ms. T.V

She is very devious sometimes in keeping you away

With her movies and political reviews

With her informative talks and entertainment news

But don’t mind her

She is always just one click away from being taking down

So Mr. Sleep

Let us take back our relationship

Did you hear that the average married couple

Spend only twelve minutes per day talking

I don’t want us to end up on that path

I’m going to need more of your time

But, just skip the talking part

Let’s just get right down to it

Come back husband of my youth

You know where to find me

My bed is made and my pillow is ready

Kiss me once more and take me to dreamland
