Tired
\nAnd lonely, So tired
\nThe heart aches.
\nMeltwater trickles
\nDown the rocks,
\nThe fingers are numb,
\nThe knees tremble.
\nIt is now,
\nNow, that you must not give in.<\/p>\n
On the path of the others
\nAre resting places,
\nPlaces in the sun
\nWhere they can meet.
\nBut this
\nIs your path,
\nAnd it is now,
\nNow, that you must not fail.<\/p>\n
Weep
\nIf you can,
\nWeep,
\nBut do not complain.
\nThe way chose you–
\nAnd you must be thankful.
