Tired

So tired.
cannot lift a foot.
an eyelid, both
came down.
honey...rescue me
save me from myself.
I forgot that all is well.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Short but full of meaning, I enjoyed the ending "I forgot that all is well" sometimes we do forget and worry over nothing. A. W. Nutter www.freewebs.com/abcedit
