Weary Traveler
I am weary!
Exhausted
Overwhelmed
Snatching moments of joy,
but wondering if I will ever
FEEL happy again
Needing uninterrupted sleep,
but every night, tossing and turning
and seeing 2 and 3 am too often
Grateful for the friends that are checking in
and making plans with me, some of which
I just can’t make
and I pray that they understand
that right now, I am a weary traveler
on this road of life!

Katie, your poem describes a place we all arrive at at some point in our lives—thanks for sharing it. May all weary travelers gain rest and respite.
Yep, agree with Bud: “May all weary travelers gain rest and respite.’
Such a well crafted poem about your journey, Hugs!

I love the specificity of this. This really nails down the weariness.
These help me sleep.
