You say I'm running from myself I guess you're right Maybe I am All I know is that the reason I hear my heartbeat so clearly Is because my chest is hollow I am made up of layers Too many layers As if my skin Was preparing to survive Out in dead winter at the South Pole I'm annoying   I'm distrustful     I'm stubborn        And I'm doubtful            And secretive Maybe downright manipulative    But most of all I'm exhausted Exhausted of the nothingness    That I float around in Exhausted of everything   That comes and goes     Ensuring chaos Exhausted of everything and nothing   And all things in between          Exhausted of                      living

Exhausted.
You say I'm running from myself I guess you're right Maybe I am All I know is that the reason I hear my heartbeat so clearly Is because my chest is hollow I am made up of layers Too many layers As if my skin Was preparing to survive Out in dead winter at the South Pole I'm annoying   I'm distrustful     I'm stubborn        And I'm doubtful            And secretive Maybe downright manipulative    But most of all I'm exhausted Exhausted of the nothingness    That I float around in Exhausted of everything   That comes and goes     Ensuring chaos Exhausted of everything and nothing   And all things in between          Exhausted of                      living
Too tired to live too important to die, guess the story keeps repeating doesn't it? (Front page 8/14/17)
