This is a poem/short story I wrote about what I feel like when I stay up late doing homework and play minecraft instead
It is late at night and I sit half awake, though that half of me is reluctant to be so. I am at the desk, doing homework, yet my fingers are not moving and my brain is not working. I feel like a zombie. My throat is dry and my mind blank. My only goal is to finish the assignment, and then I can rest in peace. I am trying my hardest to stay focused. Yet as I sit, back bent, head on my shoulder, trying to hold my consciousness, attention, and intelligence on the essay while starving for a midnight snack that is waiting two rooms away from me and bored out of my mind, my mouse slowly strays to the minecraft icon in the corner of the screen. I click on the launcher with new speed and log in. I open my world and start to build houses and mines, and explore. It is one in the morning and yet I feel like I have just slept for ages and I will never tire again. It is mid-day in minecraft and I have full hunger and health. I can go anywhere I want. I feel like I will never have to write essays again, like I have just lifted a gigantic weight off my back. I straighten up and my eyes become focused once again. The sleeping parts of my mind aren’t troubled by the nightmares of homework. I stay up playing until three in the morning, and then realize what I’ve done. The weight crashes down on me again and splits my skull. My stomach starts to complain once more and I slouch like I will never have the strength to stand again. I am unable to do anything but sleep or sit still. I nod my head in shame and sigh. Whatever, My body seems to tell me. So what if you miss an essay? Yeah, I agree, and fall asleep, dreaming about what I’m going to build in minecraft tomorrow.
Hope you liked it!
