I知 so tired. My eyes expel water, as if begging for sleep. I致e had 11 hours of sleep. I ask my eyes why they are tired, why we are so tired. They shrug.
 
I知 not pregnant, morning sickness, can稚 bend over tired.
I知 not parent chasing kids around the house to get their shoes on tired.
I知 not manual labor in the sun tired.
I知 not mourning the loss of a parent or best friend tired.
I知 not surviving an unstable relationship tired.
I知 not a teenager in high school, staying up late and waking up early tired  
I知 not high tired, or drunk tired, or break up tired, or work out tired, or a million things on my to-do list tired.
 
I知 just tired. But I can do this.
