The soul weeps for rest <br />Constant burdens weigh it down <br /> <br />Strained body, blank mind, all feeling lost <br /> <br />Blood-shot eyes paired with buckled knees <br />My feet have failed me now <br /> <br />This beginning, unwieldy <br />An ending, absent <br /> <br />Determination to decompose defeat <br />Slowly sinking into sleep<br /><br />Shane D.
