Fatigue in my bones
acts like hydrofluoric acid
with the difference being
the fatigue leeches the energy out
of my bones and entire body, whereas HF,
the calcium leech of chemistry,
would leech out the calcium
in my bones and entire body instead<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exhaustion in my heart\u2014
I am not sure how much longer
I can hold onto all of this grief and pain<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weight of the world
no longer holds me down
Instead it’s the weight of
this physical and emotional
fatigue that sucks everything
out of me, leaving me with nothing
but the ground to lay on<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fatigue in my bones
Exhaustion in my heart
I’m not sure I have enough
neoprene gloves or PPE protection
to come out completely unscathed<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fatigue in my bones
weighs heavier than any
heartbreak I have ever known<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fatigue in bones
only the gods would know
when I will get to drink
from the spring of eternal youth
and once again feel rejuvenated
before the fatigue leeches
the energy out of my bones
and entire body again<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fatigue in my bones
I hope to never ever experience you again<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
