• i am tired
• and older than the sun

//

• time never stops
• life never slows long enough
• for me to even catch my breath
• i will be strong enough again
• shortly

//

• but for now i am weak
• and tired

//

• there is too much to do
• and not enough energy in the world

//

• so i wait
• for time to tick slowly by
• until the danger passes
• and i can rest
