“Tired”
Tired when I slip out of bed
Tired as I head to the shower
Tired as water slips down my head
More tired with each passing hour
Tired as I get dressed
Tired as I brush each tooth
Tired as I try to look my best
Most tired of avoiding the truth
Tired as I wander to class
Tired as I take my seat
Tired as I wait for this feeling to pass
Exhausted as I start my week
