The Bedtime Blues

I didn’t see it coming because I didn’t look.
Even though it pounced on me as I read a book.
It is bound to happen on any given day.
Now that it’s upon me I don’t know what to say.
I’m not afraid a little shocked and very much surprised.
The whole thing has unfolded right before my very eyes.
I wont give up, I will fight on, what have I got to lose.
The clock struck nine and once again I have the bedtime blues.
