    Restless and weary fingers
    continue to assault these keys
    Eyes are heavy but my fingers need not see
    I can not rest
    All I want is to fall into a slumber
    Rest indefinitely, never to be the vigilant again
    How much longer can I fight this?
    How much longer can I fight myself?
    Neither side will win
    I can not think clearly
    but my fingers know enough
    Destruction of myself lies ahead
    Or I surrender to myself
    I choose
    Or I don't
    I can no longer see what these fingers create
    Nor do I want to
