The light is filtered.
The screen changes scenes.
What was once bright
Now darkens.
Through the eyelids
These changes take place.
Once the bright returns
I know the advertisements
Are over.
I can continue
My gaming journey.
Unless I close my eyes
And truly fall asleep.
Then no amount of light
Makes a difference.
Until my bloodshot eyes open
In the morning.
