Colourful Nightmares

Yawning in class once again

Bored out of my mind

But also exhausted

I got three hours last night

Of restless beauty rest

Full of colourful visions

In my dreadful dreams

I see black and blue and purple

With hints of liquid red

Three hours every night

Of colours I can't stand to see

During the hours I spend awake

Whether intentional or not, I thought the way there's three lines in each stanza emphasized the three hours part well. I also thought the description of nightmares as being colorful was interesting.

I'm really glad you understood my use of three lines. I would have done three stanzas as well, but I couldn't fit everything I wanted to say in a way I liked in three.

This is pretty! Plus, three hours a night is a mood.
