I'm Tired

When You've Exhausted All Hope

By Lucy PerrinPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

I’m tired.

I’m tired of feeling second best to the one person I place above all the rest.

I’m tired of wanting your company, when it seems you have no time for me.

I’m tired.

I’m tired of us making plans that never seem to withstand.

I’m tired of saying “how was your day?” When empathy never seems to come my way.

I’m tired.

I’m tired of everyone else being right because they all said I could do better when you stood me up that first night.

I’m tired of insisting you’re the one, when I’m still waiting for you to prove them all wrong.

I’m tired of being tired.
