He was exhausted , tired to his core , The 'weight' of the world was crushing his soul! He carried so much , Within him , for so so long ."Beast of burden" - that's what he was! His rugged face filled with battle scars  That only 'he' could feel The "smile" he wore was a 'helmet' ...Waiting for his breath to escape for good  Praying for his final relief. BinYamin Gulzar
About This Quote

The above quote is a beautiful piece of poetry. I believe the writer had a deep sense of empathy and understanding for this character. He was able to put himself in the shoes of the character and describe how he felt. This quote also shows how people are different, each person has their own unique personality, traits, etc.

Many people are tired of being tired. Many people are tired of carrying so much weight within them, they feel worn out by it all, this quote captures that feeling well.
