High

So high on sleepless nights

Red eyes, white lies

Ashen face, wild hair

Bittersweet nightmare

Vision foggy

Mind groggy

Slow moving time

And pages soggy

Eyes close

Put up a fight

Shy away

From the slightest light

Drowsy smile

Thoughts, in single file

Every inch

A thousand miles

Pang of pleasure

Moments of leisure

A queenly high

Of sleepless nights
