Days of Haze

Days of Haze

Struggle throughout the day,
Trying to hold my fatigue at bay.

I feel so malaise,
Muddling through my days.

The exhaustion is so extreme
It makes me want to scream!

This disaster is not what I was after.

I get ready for my day
Knowing things will not go my way.

If I sit down and don’t keep going,
It sets in and keeps growing.

I cannot fulfill all my desires
My body runs on four flat tires.

Lord, please deliver me
from my misery.

And put my energy intact,
So I don’t have to keep up this lethargic act.
