I look up at the sky
And well I'm wondering why
Love is so mad when I want it so bad
Why does it hate me?
Starting at my own reflection
Focused on the string of rejections
Focused on my lack of protection from you
But I get so tired
That I don’t know
If today is today or tomorrow
I get so tired
That I don’t know if I'm outside or in my bed
I might faint
I might break
I see warning labels
And caution tape
Protect me cause I'm not safe
Protect me I'm taking it day to day
The tired me, soon I'll be fired me
Cause I get so damn tired
What am I doing?
Am I writing or just dancing along?
Am I running or just completely still?
Well I cant tell whats right or wrong

thanks for sharing, dear Poet
Thanks! Very nice of you
It is one of the best ones i read up till now... I know how it feels when you are scared cause you love something too much.. when you are nearly at your limit and you you want someone to protect you from breaking... Every line hold something deep in this one.... This is how i viewed this poem.
Thanks for reading and yes that's exactly it. All you want is to be protected and to be safe but 9 times out of 10 you aren't
