A reminder to nourish my body

"exhausted"

What an ideal day!

Today I told myself to rest.

Today I accept the defeat.

Today I realize that my body is exhausted.

 ~~

I woke up with a headache. 

Within every fiber of my brain.

My nerves and veins have a different tone.

A reminder to nourish my body.

 ~~

Now that I'm relaxed.

A refreshing breeze blows around me.

I feel like I needed this day.

A day to sit and relax.

~~

I admire nature's beauty.

After the sun sets, 

The sky brought a stunning view.

Greetings from the stars and moon.

 

Through it all, I feel drowsy.

whereas dreams will take over.

And give my brain a little downtime.

I wish to feel different tomorrow.
