NaNo poem: I would write all night

I could write all night

I could write all night
if I could stay awake,
and my thoughts would flow
through my head,
Emptying my brain
without stopping to sleep,
Until I got the words out
of my head
and onto paper.
or a computer screen..
And then what would I do?
What good would an empty brain be?
Probably better that I sleep
and start again tomorrow,
So I don’t run out
of things to say.

I could write all night,
but I won't.
