} fatigue {


he's so tired
day after day
tired of being tired
he can't live this way

his tired hands
rub burning eyes
arms fall limp
on the floor he lies

crumpled there
half comatose
consciousness taken
he gets his nightly dose

alarms ring
eyes pry open
tonight he'll get more sleep
that's what he's hoping

the night comes
he's still awake
wishing he could sleep
he feels his legs go weak
