Fed up, yet Still Trying

#VocalNPM

I’m Tired. 

The older I get the more my life falls apart;

my dreams seem further away.

The more good I do

the more bad I get in return

I sometimes feel like giving up

I’mtired of trying only to end up being disappointed.

I’mtired of loving only to feel hated.

I’m tired of trying to mend when I’m constantly broken.

I’m tired of smiling when inside I’m frowing.

I’m tired of searching & not finding.

I’m tired of everything being so twisted & confusing.

I never thought that life could break you down to your last & even then keep breaking you until you are minced into pieces. Instead of being pure & full

You’re drained & dried up;

it’s insanity.

I’m done with this foolery.
