tired of Looking into mirrors & realizing Death occurred long ago Knowing that what happens Is never my will But theirs See me fall down Crush my spirit Like I did those hands Bind me To the weight of my penance Set that stone afloat For my sins weigh heavy. tired of Understanding & acceptance Tired of silent words & absolution Wisdom and caring Joy & happiness If only because These are the things I never understood how to create god I am tired of… Tired of being complacent The anxiety from looking The thoughts of being Trying to be cool Acting like all is good My life Here I f***ing stand tired of Being the good one Earning for anyone but me Being their rock Supporting every ones world But mine Codependency and hating myself for it.
