Fever

I have a fever. I am hot/cold at the same time.
But this day in bed has given me the chance to Sabbath.
It's so sad that my body has to die before I am willing to rest.
I want to be superwoman and save the world.
But God just wants me to rest when I need to.
Resting is a foreign idea to me.
I don't want it to be so foreign any more.
