TIRED KIND OF TIREDNESS

There’s a kind of tiredness sleep can’t fix.
A heaviness that lingers in the bones,
in the heart,
in the places no rest seems to reach.

It’s the tiredness that comes from carrying too much—
smiling when you want to break,
showing up when you want to disappear,
holding it together when no one knows
how close you are to falling apart.

If this is you,
please hear me:
you are not weak for feeling this way.
You are not failing because you are worn out.
You are human.
And humans get tired.

So pause.
Breathe.
Lay the weight down, even if just for a moment.

The world can wait.
Your heart needs rest too.

And when you rise again—
because I know you will—
know that even this tired kind of tiredness
cannot dim the light that still lives in you.
