Not quite giving up, not quite getting up

I lay on the ground
You have beaten me down
For buying you the wrong colored shoes
One size too small
Sleep covers me like a blanket
Exhaustion wears me like a new outfit
I let my body ache and moan
For I am too tired to ease its cries
I close my eyes warily
Sick of seeing my battered face
The light I see before my eyes
Gives a grim hope for a new day.
I reject the temptation to give in
I slowly sit up against the wall
I keep my eyes closed
Just let my soul rest for a few hours.

This poem is a cry one must heed
It is heard by all who can read,
It appears to us all
Get out of this pall
That's what it is that you need...
