Waking Weary, I dress for the day.
Nodding I sit and curse the delay.
Waiting for work to come take me
away.

I'd rather just sleep here to while the
day, but since I cannot I do curse the
delay.

I don't know what to write.
I start to write what seems to be something great,
But, in the end, doesn't seem right.
The late nights I spend,
Trying to figure out what words to write down,
My brain forsakes my pen.
I now find myself distracted by an odd sound.
My brain is here and there,
It can't concentrate,
For it wants to go everywhere.
Maybe it's because it's late?
That has to be why I am unable to concentrate,
It must be.
I should sleep.
Goodnight.

A jaded cackle escapes my lips
as you nodded "puppet head" in my direction.
With a quizzical brown you questioned
the paint upon my face, and the purpose of it.

A tiredness overwhelmed my body
suddenly fatigued by the plight
of continually having to explain oneself
and armor ones choice from a misunderstanding world.

Compare me to a puppet doll if you wish,
the opinions you will draw of me based upon my face
fathom me little.

I paint my face for me, and only me
spending much time fussing over which shade of berry
suits my mood and attitude of how to tackle this dreary world today.

It's amazing how you can talk nonstop
Take a ******* breath already

When my Dad used to come up in my face
And smile at me As a baby
I used to push him away
Give me my space
Jheez!

And at aged 3 when I used to rest my head
On lil blondies shoulder as we watched tv
In nursery
He  would push me off constantly,
First taste of rejection
Jheez!

And as a pre teen
When that little **** Esteban was showin off and being mean
Got my brother in a headlock till he couldn't breath
Grabbed him off, pushed him over a wall as I screamed even though he was older and much bigger than me
Made me so angry!
First time I laid hands on someone in defence of my family
Haven't had to do it since, thankfully
Shock of me switching actually made him come up after and say sorry
Jheez!

As a Teen, chillin in the park, all sunny
When this lil kid who looks half asleep
Cycling in his dressing gown
comes up to me
Asking if I wanna buy some ****
Pushing drugs?!
Someone should be pushing him on a ****** swing , he's only a baby!
Makes my heart bleed
Jheez!

And every ****** mornin
As I'm getting to where I need to be
Getting pushed onto this train
By impatient imbeciles
When there is no need
There's another one comin in 3!
So why am I hovering under someones smelly armpit all awkwardly?
Jheez!

**All this pushing, all this pulling
this game of tug of war,
really puts me on ****** edge,
I really can't take no more.
But city life is city life
Jheezus you know the score!
Don't push me cause I'm close to the Edge!

headstrong is a simple word. Impulsive, touchy, emotionally-driven-
you tell me to grow up and stop acting like a child and yet you decide to
perpetuate a situation that actually makes you look immature. Funny, cuz
on one hand, you didn't want to act childish but then you turn around,
carelessly spill random details in the hopes to look good. An attempt to be
ratified. You want the upper hand, but in doing that you've made your
inferiority clear as day. I would explain this to you further sweetheart but
the warning signs all say "do not dive headfirst into shallow waters."
even if you were worth the time and effort, I haven't the heart or patience.

Hot, cool.
Damp, moist.
Blurring, biting, stinging clouds.
Spring Weather.
Tired of all the bugs.

I don't know when it became
Such a game
To just communicate
With you
Some power play

But dang I'd choose
Cups and strings
And walkie talkies
Over this "thing"
Any day

But you're a Joker
Why so serious?!

*Cause the conversation
And the company
Are getting oh so tedious
Cause life's like Waiting on that slow cashier for that Well overdue change
