Tiredness

thewayiwrite

 

I am tired.

 

Tired of this state of waiting

Of being in limbo

Of nothing happening

 

Tired of the wasted days

Of the wasted youth

Of the wasted life

 

Tired of time continuing without me

Of being left behind

Of the sameness of every moment

 

Tired of being alone

Of the empty house

Of the silent walls

 

Tired of endless circles

Of the same music

Of the same films

 

I am tired.

Of Decaying.

Slowly.

Sadly.

Unnoticed.

    Please please give feedback, I haven’t written for months and months until yesterday and now suddenly the words have come flooding back and are flowing out into what I think are random streams that I dare to hope might be thought of as poetry

    I read it, would like to give feedback but am too depressed now.

    I can understand your feelings but there is goodness out there in these sad times, just keep looking and you will be surprised at what is there for you.

    sharing your truth's is a brutal journey, dear fellow scribbler
    see, when others read your words, we do so through our own distorted prism's, replying with commentary that alienates you from the very words you penned...
    so firstly and most importantly: write for yourself!
    if you deem it worthy, then let that be enough for you...
    the instance you allow other's to value your worth, will be the moment those vultures will rise to swallow your confidence - whole, why?
    cause that is how they sustain that warped delusion of self-indulgently morose, judgemental perspectives of life, to demean other's worth with...
    yes, by all means heed advise that is aimed at aiding your growth, but never let other's opinions discourage you from writing your truth's!
    I found your write an interesting read, admittedly it lacks a secondary point of view or rather a more rounded look at your situation, but no journey starts at the end, so I appreciate you must first begin by writing what you see, maybe later as you reflect and revise, you may see an alternative perspective that can help guide a more positive outlook on your situation, all in all it was a good read, keep writing and sharing, we are here and all traversing that same journey on the rivers of ink, my literary minded friend...

      I really connected to this poem, the current lockdown situations can definitely make us feel these emotions. But there is always light at the end of the tunnel. A great expression x
