Drained to Rest

Sometimes my body feels drained
Like my soul is easing out the pores of my skin
Leaving me fatigued and in a paralyzed state
And wondering where my soul has been

I vision thirsty mouths with aiming straws
Standing all around me
Taking turns one by one
Siphoning all of my energy

I fall bonelessly to the floor
Managing to stretch my hands to the sky
Expecting the stars to pull me up
And give me a place to lie
