Lying on the rug hoping for relief
Just don’t have it in me
Can’t move, think, or blink
Chapped lips
Thirsty for some water
But my bones ache too much
I remain on the rug
Hoping for a jagged reef
And a calming sea
Where my exhausted mind can sink
And where an elixir is in my sip
Parched, wondering what to barter
Not my integrity nor my golden touch
I hold my head up high on the rug
But from here I cannot move
My will has gone for a walk
But my voice will be here when it returns

My exhausted mind finds solace, on the rugs of other peoples words. Thanks for sharing, a bit of sorrow amongst your myriad posts of joy.
