what chronic fatigue looks like

i had a migraine all day yesterday
and i cried from emotional overwhelm

i slept really well last night
but now
i'm exhausted

i'm falling asleep in church
then i'm falling asleep during a movie
then i'm falling asleep when i try to read

but when i intentionally try to close my eyes and rest
i can't
my body moves
restlessly
my brain won't shut up
or shut down
even if i go to my bed
instead of the couch
i lay there
unable to find unconscious solitude
