It means you have low iron in your blood, or a lack of production of red blood cells. It can also be a lack of hemoglobin which causes your blood to clot when you cut yourslef. (Which means your body really has difficulty stopping the blood flow.)

Anemia is when the level of healthy red blood cells (RBCs) in the body becomes too low. This can lead to health problems because RBCs contain hemoglobin, which carries oxygen to the body's tissues. Anemia can make you very tired. In addition, lots of people with anemia like to eat ice. That's a condition called pica that occurs commonly with anemia. Below is a website you can check out which has a lot of info on anemia.

Low red blood cell count. You don't have enough red cells to carry oxygen to all parts of your body. You will be tired. There are many causes of anemia... see your doctor and first figure out why you are anemic then treat it.
