Listen to Me

Tired

I miss me.
I miss the old me,
the happy me,
the bright me,
the smiling me,
the laughing me,
the gone me.

-~+*+~-

I'm tired of crying.
I'm tired of yelling.
I'm tired of being sad.
I'm tired of pretending.
I'm tired of being angry.
I'm tired of feeling crazy.
I'm tired of feeling stuck.
I'm tired of needing help.
I'm tired of remembering.
I'm tired missing things.
I'm tired of being different.
I'm tired of missing people.
I'm tired of feeling empty inside.
I'm tired of not being able to just let go.
I'm tired of wishing I could start all over.
I'm tired of dreaming of a life I will never have.
But most of all I'm just tired of being tired.

-~+*+~-

I'm tired of trying.
Sick of crying.
I know I'm smiling.
But inside I'm dying.
