just another morning

The alarm rings and i get up 
Realizing that even though i just slept the night 
my body is exhausted 
my soul is tired 
And while i try to fire my engine 
To zoom out of bed to meet the day 
i roll out, slowly, puttering instead of zooming 

my mind feels a little cloudy 
So i attempt a few of my tried and true go-tos to slough off the tired blanket that has wrapped itself around my entire being 

A shower, some yoga, caffeine, the internet ... those should get me going 
But yet even if they do provide a small jolt of wake up 
Underneath, the tired and empty place remains 
For while there is work to be done, 
and people who are tugging at me for attention 
The truth is... 
If i took a moment out of  my life, to look in the mirror into my eyes, 
the window to your heart and soul 
What i only  see and hear back in response is ...
"i have nothing more left to give today."
