Just Tired :: Bayboo :: Original Poetry

Just Tired

I look at you,

And see what I used to be.

I see the carefully construed web of almost,

Between "there" and "gone,"

With everyone's perception of you is wrong.

And when,

Oh, that's wrong: I mean IF,

Someone recognizes your expression,

"Just tired," you will say.

Yes, I think.

Just tired of everyone,

And everything,

Tearing you down,

Building you to believe a lie.

Eating air,

Hiding behind your hair.

Just tired of be a walking dead,

A human travesty,

Having everyone believe you to be a mistake.

So, yes.

"Just tired" is right.
