My bones have become filled
to the brim with lead
until each step I take
is so labored
I can barely make another.
I am exhausted
to my very core
And I'm expending
every ounce of my energy
simply attempting
to hold my eyelids up.
I can't anymore, I'm sorry.
I just can't, I'm too tired,
I'm going to sleep now,
that deep, restful sleep
from which one doesn't awake.
