Feelings of exhaustion and helplessness felt at the end of something – a day, an event, etc.

SO TIRED

Just need to lie down,

Feet hurt, head aches,

Confusion all around,

Tears could fill lakes;

My body weary,

Don’t seem to care,

Eyes are so bleary,

Burdens I can’t bear;

What got me going,

Has gotten me back,

I can’t keep rowing,

Against tide so black;

Must have down time,

A chance to unwind,

No reason, no rhyme,

Have to unbind.

    Try Suma my friend. It’s Brazilian Ginseng. Works wonders without the jitters or edgy feeling. I was like this yesterday. I prayed and took some and life was better!

    if you feel tired, try sitting down and emptying your mind, focusing on your breathing and just letting go. it works wonders.
