I'm tired

No I'm exhausted

I feel as if I was rotting slowly

From the inside out

Moving sluggishly through the halls

But a smile in hand

My mind slipping from my skull

Blood oozing from my fingertips

My feet bare with holes of forgotten steps

Blistered with the heat of the past

I'm tired

Of being tired

A hatred burns through me aching

Time to time

Day after day

Moment after minute

I dont sleep

But then I do

Lost in a realm

Of unseen fortune of good

Nor Evil

Truly unknown vast and unoriginal

I'm exhausted

Without reason

Somehow my thoughts dig into my body

Forcing me asleep

To forget

It whispers

Shhh..close your eyes

Just forget

I dont want to forget

I dont want to sleep

I dont want to drift into a distant

Spec of meaningless dust

Wake me up,

Gently, with a kiss to the forehead

Someone steal my dreams

Force me down the endless path

And drown me in the sleepless stream

I'm tired

truly worn

Of being tired
