Poem #8 - Drowning

1 0 0
                                    

This endless fatigue drags me down,
'Till I feel as if I'm drowning,
Under my sea of burdens and responsibilities.
There are so many hands that have a hold on me,
They drag me under the surface,
Each cloying for attention,
Begging for me to pull them up with me,
But it's never enough.
Something has to give.
I know that as time passes,
More and more hands will grab hold of me,
Slowly dragging me further under the surface.
Something has to give.
I only pray it won't be me.
