Poetry: Withdrawn

by Brittany Rose

Created on: October 06, 2008

I'm honestly just tired

I'm really tired now

I'm tired of this headache

I'm tired of the wrinkle in my brow

I'm tired of the stinging

I feel in my nose and eyes

I'm tired of looking for honesty

And receiving nothing but lies

I'm tired of my dreams

They do nothing but cause more panic

I'm tired of my own insanity

I'm tired of being so manic

I'm tired of this ache

I constantly feel in my heart

I'm tired of putting it back together

After it's constantly ripped apart

I'm just so tired of trying

I'm tired of giving you the benefit of the doubt

I'm tired of making excuses

I'm tired of trying to figure this all out

I'm so tired of settling

For so much less than I deserve

I'm so tired of searching for stability

When everything always ends up absurd

I'm so tired of love

Because it always seems to leave me cold

I'm so tired of this stress

It's just causing me to grow old

I'm so tired of thinking I found something

Only to be deceived again

I'm so tired of wanting something true

And wondering how it will happen and when

I'm so tired of giving my heart away

Only for it to be crushed

I'm so tired of trying to slow down life

Only to continually be rushed

I'm so tired of this pain

I just want something true

I'm so tired of this game

I'm so tired of loving you.
