Psalm 102:5 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 102.

1 A prayer of one who is afflicted, when he grows faint and pours out his lament before the LORD. Hear my prayer, O LORD; let my cry for help come before You.

2 Do not hide Your face from me in my day of distress. Incline Your ear to me; answer me quickly when I call.

3 For my days vanish like smoke, and my bones burn like glowing embers.

4 My heart is afflicted, and withered like grass; I even forget to eat my bread.

5 Through my loud groaning my flesh clings to my bones.

6 I am like a desert owl, like an owl among the ruins.

7 I lie awake; I am like a lone bird on a housetop.

8 All day long my enemies taunt me; they ridicule me and curse me.

9 For I have eaten ashes like bread and mixed my drink with tears
