Besides The Fatigue Poem by Mwenyeji Spikes

Besides The Fatigue



Sitting and waiting then waiting to sit
You look at both sides of the coin
One thing is certain, the waiting won't help
You probably wished for a little more action
But most of the days felt empty like a reverie

Isn't life supposed to feel more fulfilling?
Aren't the things we already prayed for out to be here
What you see and feel can charge you up or drain you
For the better part of the day the draining doesn't stop
Careful what you wish for because none of it might you get

You sit ponder and reflect
What more is there to life besides the fatigue?
Does the promise of sun tomorrow make any difference?
Do you stand a chance to refill your soul with beautiful ink to paint life
Everyday might end just like the last but besides the fatigue
There might be hope if we will and manifest and work some more for change
