Exhaustion

I am tired.

No, don’t tell me to get a good night’s rest. It’s not going to help. I am going to wake up still firmly stuck in my bubble of sadness and exhaustion.

Don’t try and advise me on how I can get over it – I won’t recover. Don’t try and tell me you’ve been through more, you don’t know half of my story.

Let me rest. Give me a break. From life. You don’t even know me half as well as you think you do. I am not half myself as what I show. Don’t try and tell me, you’ll understand. You don’t. None of you do.

I don’t blame that.

I blame life, for playing a joke on me. On you.

I am tired, of life.

Keep hiding, bolt the doors right shut.

Put up a mask in front of everyone else.

After all, you can’t afford to be yourself.

No, the answer simply is no.

Pretend you never noticed this post.
