so tired
body, mind, soul
so tired
of this anguish
that seems to be lodged
into my very core,
eternally
all energy is drawn
to my worries
leaving behind nothing 
but restlessness,
emptiness
compulsive worry
has become part of me
a necessity to life
can't break from 
these thoughts,
this mind, 
eternally
a tragic burden
upon my shoulders
that cannot be released
