So tired so very very tired. My torn shredded body is weakened by the day, By labours unappreciated Kindnesses unseen , Jokes and smiles forced upon a face starting to crack with time and dull with age. Bones ache and scrape And hands become to tremor Eyes start to fail and mind is even slowing . I count down hours till I can relax with you. Our collaborative aim to labour in vain to save So that we may have some enjoyable kind of life A shared life for soul mates But this rat race is cruel and working is never quite enough And despite good intentions And despite wants and wishes Dreams of adventures We are drained from life And so we sleep (c) Ashley Kane

So Sleep
So tired so very very tired. My torn shredded body is weakened by the day, By labours unappreciated Kindnesses unseen , Jokes and smiles forced upon a face starting to crack with time and dull with age. Bones ache and scrape And hands become to tremor Eyes start to fail and mind is even slowing . I count down hours till I can relax with you. Our collaborative aim to labour in vain to save So that we may have some enjoyable kind of life A shared life for soul mates But this rat race is cruel and working is never quite enough And despite good intentions And despite wants and wishes Dreams of adventures We are drained from life And so we sleep (c) Ashley Kane
Just really really tired from work and poor and wishing could focus or do something more enjoyable
