System Restore can't help as it doesn't monitor text files. Try checking
your Temp files to see if a copy was saved there.

You can also look in My Documents and the Temp folder for your user for a
file with a WBK extension and try opening that in Word.

You've lost your work. If Works works like Word, you may be lucky in that the auto
recovery feature works and you might recover some of your document when you re-open
the program.
If not, start typing.
