Exhausted.

I'm so tired all of the time now.
Whether physical activities lead me to this,
Or I didn't sleep well.
I'm just always tired.

My body constantly feels heavy now.
My shoulders pushing down the rest of me,
My legs feeling ready to give out,
It's as if I'm struggling to keep going.
No matter where I go or what I do,
I would so much rather be in bed, alone.

I don't even like sleep that much,
I don't prefer to be alone,
I'm not even that poor-rested.

I'm just exhausted.


Everything,
It all hurts now.
Half of the things that wouldn't have made me think twice about a year ago,
Those are the things that pull me apart now.

It's gotten to a point,
I can't even tell if I cry because I'm weak or if I've just had enough.
But I'm certain of one thing,
I sure as hell am not strong.

I gain too much support from others.
What am I gonna do when they leave me?
I can't fall apart again.
Not again.

Everything's so heavy nowadays.
It's exhausting.
