T.I.R.E.D
When people ask are you okay,
I respond with I'm fine,
I'm just T.I.R.E.D,
I'm just so T.I.R.E.D.
I am just
Trying to understand why I feel so alone in a group of friends.
I am just
Irritated by the people who say they know me but don't know the struggles I go through,
mcuh less care about me.
I am just
Restless from all the nights I stayed awake thinking of how a situation went,
how I should have acted,
what I should have done,
and if that day went better then the last.
I am just
Enraged at myself for not acting "normal."
I am just
Dying. I am just dying to know if anyone cares about me,
if there is someone that stands up for me when I'm not there,
and if there is someone I could be friends with and not feel alone.
I am just T.I.R.E.D.
I am just so T.I.R.E.D.
