tired


tired

very tired

no reason to
be so tired
no hard labor
to look back on
it is just
exhausting
to be me

don't know
how to
be one of
those people
who are
themselves
without even
trying

no wait
it is that
the me
that i am
without trying
sucks

so maybe
tired
with good reason
after all

there is less suck
in the world
and i can
smile and
sleep like a log
