TIRED

I am tired….
Worn out, exhausted,
weary, fatigued,
drained, wasted…
day after day
of tired…..
I am tired of being tired
Take a shower
lie down
Fry an egg
lie down
Get dressed
lie down
Straighten the bed
lie down
Walk around the back yard
lie down
Talk on the phone
lie down
Answer an email
lie down
Visit with a friend
lie down
I am so tired of
Not being able to walk any distance
Not being able to dance
Not being able to cook
Or clean or sort
the piles of paper everywhere
Tired of things not being put away
Tired of Christmas wrapping still on the table
Tired of the pain in my shoulders
1 broken
the other -tendonitis from overuse
tired of the weakness
tired of
the scaly itchy skin
tired of the sores that sting
tired of the back pain
leg pain
just plain tired of it all…..
