You're tired
All you want to do
Right now
In this moment
Is to close your eyes
And fall asleep
Sleep
You don't wanna wake up
From this tonight
You're tired
Of the world
Of what people say
Of having to pretend
"I'm ok"
When you're not
Of having to maintain
That image you know
They expect from you
When that's someone you're not
And behind all that
You're falling apart
You're tired
And you're sick of it
Sick of them telling you
"It's for your own good"
"It's nothing, you'll get over it"
"I went through this too, toughen up"
And you just want them
To shut up
And leave you alone
So you can shut yourself in
And cry yourself to sleep
You're tired
Of everything
Of having to study and go to school
Facing the same mundane chores
The same day
Played on repeat
A endless, torturous cycle
When will it ever end?
You're at the end of the line
And you ask yourself
"What am I living for?"
Then you realise you don't know
You don't know why you're here
You just want everything to end
Cease to exist
A blank void
Darkness
Nothingness
You're tired.
So, so, tired...
Author's Note
