Just Tired

by Everlasting   Jun 20, 2021


I am tired

Just tired
Usually tired
So tired
Terribly tired

Waking up is a challenge
Another day goes by
Nothing changes
Tired is becoming normal

Tired is just normal
Oh so normal

So very normal to me
Like breathing
Except I’m not sure I breathe all the time
Especially when I sleep
Part of me says I don’t

Another says I do
Not sure at all
Days go by . . .

Nothing changes
Oh never mind
Tiredness doesn’t change

Waking up does not awake me
Actually, it tires me more but gotta …
Keep waking up
Except I’m tired

Usually tired
Permanently tired… it seems

    When the act of breathing tires you out, it's time to sit down, relax and have a cuppa; unless, of course, that's too tiring!

    Take care x

      Yeah, lol. That will surely send me to sleep. I wouldn’t mind it though. (P.s. a cuppa is tea, right? )

    This is too relatable and made me think of the quote "I am not an early bird or a night owl, I am a permanently exhausted pigeon."
    I feel you and here if you need anything,

    Take care,
