I'm tired of being nice,
tired of cuddling your feelings
and burning mine.
I'm tired of being angry.
Destroying my body and mind
and cutting you out of my life.
I'm tired of being sad.
Crying and eating and repeating.
I'm tired of feeling crazy,
feeling leftout and brokendown.
I'm tired of my eyes,
waiting up for a message that
will never come.

I'm tired, but I cannot sleep.

Sometimes, I get tired of living and the living. Those such as me who hope for unconditional love and those who want world peace.

I'm tired of being nice.
Laughing at bad jokes and smiling to scare off bad men.
I'm tired of being tired, I wish their was another word to use.

I'm just too tired to look.
endless sleep

this is a love poem,
but i won't be gushing
about your enticing eyes
and perfect hair,
and to be fair,
i frankly won't care
if you lose them
because you are
so much more than
the strings on your scalp
and the stars in your sockets,
for your heart alone
punctured holes in my soul
and the way our fingers entwine
ties these bows
through the holes
in my soul
to keep me whole
and alive
= sorry, idk when to hit the enter key =

Poems aren't made to be constructed perfectly, or even beautifully.
Neither are people.

Vincent Van Gogh used to eat yellow paint because he thought it would get the happiness inside him.
Many people thought he was crazy and stupid for doing so because the paint was toxic, never mind that it was obvious that eating paint couldn’t possible have any direct correlation to one’s happiness, but I never saw that.
If you were so unhappy that even the craziest ideas could possible work, like painting the walls of your internal organs yellow, than you are going to do it.
It’s really no different than falling in love or taking drugs.
There is a greater risk of getting your heart broken or overdosing, but people still do it everyday because there was always that chance it could make things better.
Everyone has their yellow paint.

Falling in love.

Ten thousand leaves fell
with a single wisp of air
that escaped from your lips
as you smile;

that is how rapturously I fell in love
with you.
