Overcoming Malaise: Finding Hope and Strength

I’m in a deep malaise
It’s lasted for days

I want to give up
And play with my sweet pup

I lie in bed for many a day
I’m full of dismay

My thoughts are racing
Our floor, I’m pacing

I struggle to get a good night’s sleep
It’s exhausting, and I weep

Chatting with my sister Vi
Makes me feel better, and spry

It’s hard for me to have motivation
If I had energy, it would be an elation

I won’t give up, you see
In Christ, I have the victory
