Exhaustion

I am tired.
Not for the lack of rest--
no, I slept quite well last night,
and I've had my coffee.

it's something deeper, something
inherently present in the
fibers of my skin, in my
tendons, in my eyes.

I am exhausted,
fatigued by life,
by the noise and the silence,
the people, and the empty rooms,
the light and the dark;
By hope and
dispair.

So worn down by the world
that nothing in it can
refresh my mind from the
constant buzzing.

I am tired, and there are not
enough hours in the night
for the type of rest I need.
