This poem brought to you by hormonal fatigue, before a solution was implemented
*
On waking up I throw the hook
That latches to the end of the day
I pull it tight and haul myself to
I tell my body it must obey
I wake up tired and dream of sleep
It never seems enough
My eyes drop like the minute hand
Remaining upright is so tough
Lethargy really wears one down
My hormones are the cause
I’d get really rather cross at them
But the effort makes me pause
What was high is turned down low
I never expected this
If only I could go about my life
Without feeling so amiss
