Mentally and emotionally tired

Mentally and emotionally tired

Today I am so very tired,
Both mentally and emotionally,
The days are really catching up on me,
The tiredness… I am really feeling today,
The tears I’ve cried, god knows how I have any left,
Though they still seem to fall down my face,
My body is weak today,
Crying out so bad for a break!
My head has no more room right now for anything else,
I want to do so much with my life!
Unfortunately with fate that can not be,
I try my best but for some reason continue to feel sad!
Will there be any day that I won’t feel this turmoil?
Or will it be that I continue feeling I’m getting closer into the soil?
My back aches today,
I just feel so tired and drained,
I want to close my eyes and just sleep right now.

Namaste Selfexpressive.

    Oh, I so know this feeling, as I live with it, too. You have expressed it so well and can feel your pain and your hot tears upon my check. When it is this bad, I do sleep and I am blessed with a husband who understands. I think of it as God's way of saying "rest my weary child, sleep". I, too want to badly to do more, what I am trying is to set a new goal, however small it is, toward a new project, each day. We can do ANYTHING, but we might need to take smaller steps. I wish you well, my friend and if you ever need to talk, I would be honored to listen.

    BLESSINGS & LOVE,
    Doris

    Ohh how I can relate to your heartfelt and sad write. I too suffer from clinical depression and have been in a bad slump for over a couple of months now but I am slowly climbing back up to the light. I am so sorry that you have to suffer this same fate. Your poem is amazing thanks for sharing. Again welcome to People With Disabilities hugs and love Theresa

    Signs

    In your words there are many signs of great depression. Here on AP that subject seems to be a drag on some. But those in favor of a lighter load just cannot realize the depths of such pain and agony. Hang in there friend.

      Thanks Bob my friend for your words of comfort.. I know its really hard for others to understand depression... to be honest I never understood it when my aunt aged only 35 years old took her own life just 10 days before I had our youngest daughter... and then well I got hit, smack, bang and have been the same ever since ... xxx
