"I AM TIRED"

SimonROCK

I am tired

Are You not tired

Like a CEO with powers to hire

I wish Life would just fire

 

Tired of Hyenas that follow

A Lion to eat from the work of her claws

Waiting for a day of her sorrow

Just to make a meal of her flaws

 

Tired of been scolded

For every stone I left

But not rewarded

For the rights in my right

 

Penury is not just a sickness

But a cankerworm that eat your wellness

Even deep the bone marrows of your wholeness

Leaving you in lack and want of fullness

 

Tired of eating today's bread

At the expense of tomorrow's reputation

Tired of feigning my stories comic

Foisting my teeth to obey that countenance 

 

Tired of limping from mountain top

Searching for what lies beneath

Tired of admiring the planes from under

When I can actually fly over

 

I am tired

Are you not tired

Tired of been a wailer

Who then is an achiever

 

Tired of people telling me dope

What is the essence of giving me false hope

Tired of those that wish I carry a hanging rope

A generation of mixed crops

 

I am just tired

Are you also tired

If everyone is tired

Let Life just fire.
