Sleepzy
Made up words writing challenge

Want to cure your sleepzyness? Read my boring story, and pfft! You’ll put yourself right to sleep. — Josh Balerite Acol
A toss here, a twist there Got to rest soon dare have to work early morn my eyes kept blinking till dawn
ouch! heavy eyelids I can’t bear yet my thoughts are harsher dear brain, do please stop talkin’ quit thinking about thinkin’
I wish and pray hard I could have a night of dreams or nightmares than nights of ‘sleepzyness’ where you’re never really asleep and you’re never really awake
For some sleepzy, is a time remembering someone dear for me, it is a time for capturing the art of INSANE CREATIVITY of creators like you and me
Sleepzy/sleepzyness — a night of pushing yourself hard to sleep, but your mind is fully awake journeying somewhere trying to seize the moment of being creative (not exactly insomnia, just a bit of it).
