Insomnia Of Sms Origin Poem by Han Min Ohn

Sending out a sms, waiting for a reply
A minute passed and response still not supplied
Checking the phone frequently, making sure that no message had arrived
Although knowing very well that there is no new surprise.

Minutes turned into hour and still no response came
‘Why no response? Why? ' began my storming of the brain
Might be due to this, might also be due to that
There were so many probabilities that exact one I couldn't catch.

This extreme use of mental power kept my eyes wide open
I just couldn't sleep, but thinking again and again
I finally decided to call and ask why there was no reply
But a look at the clock reminded me not to be so wild.

So I decided to sleep and let the matter wait till morning
The time when I would have more approachable options
However my body didn't follow my decision and stayed awake
Till the arrival of twilight, till the dawn would break.
