I’m tired.620Please respect copyright.PENANAt9gjzuyFjT
If I’m honest, the days keep dragging by620Please respect copyright.PENANAgPXnedHsjN
and my feet are sliding across the floor instead620Please respect copyright.PENANAfKoMeCw5Bz
of lifting with each step because I can’t find the energy620Please respect copyright.PENANAyAoehYHK4Y
to pick them up and set them back down.620Please respect copyright.PENANAyTMX6Yd2Lp
Some people turn and ask me to stop scuffing620Please respect copyright.PENANAvDgIRTbuD2
my feet on the floor, please lift them up and walk620Please respect copyright.PENANAxA1hwiGfyL
like a normal person, thank you.620Please respect copyright.PENANAFV3tY7kPxv
I try.620Please respect copyright.PENANAtd5qVaBHg0
I try everyday to lift myself up and keep walking620Please respect copyright.PENANAY7R3vqN8Mz
but like my feet, I am scuffing across the ground620Please respect copyright.PENANAIMpAvg3SR4
just barely making it from one place to another620Please respect copyright.PENANAM50A4maJ5y
without damage.
I’m tired.620Please respect copyright.PENANAOQL1A6jcko
Just this Wednesday I was driving home620Please respect copyright.PENANAHkJglEcuzO
on the highway, 480 West from Brookpark Road620Please respect copyright.PENANAi2iUtnzABI
where the RTA takes me to Cleveland for classes, and620Please respect copyright.PENANAjggXaRPdwV
during the drive, I couldn’t focus on the road before me620Please respect copyright.PENANAL2thslRy3K
because the news that Trump had won left me shaken620Please respect copyright.PENANAg4ZBiBizQE
for those I’m not sure how to help620Please respect copyright.PENANAz0KfKuSoXt
when I’ve been given a privilege I didn’t ask for.620Please respect copyright.PENANA7r7JuvXWJy
And while I was driving down the highway620Please respect copyright.PENANAMSLvYqLnS0
I contemplated the notion of jerking the wheel620Please respect copyright.PENANAJwbnza3IGI
to the left and letting my car hit the divide between the620Please respect copyright.PENANASSdCmpgeJN
highway East and the highway West; allow myself to620Please respect copyright.PENANAxiCAJIpPZj
collide with the wall, break through and destroy620Please respect copyright.PENANAk1SQx19F5P
the other side.620Please respect copyright.PENANAVY6DTqNiXb
Then, I contemplated jerking the wheel to the right620Please respect copyright.PENANANY7lEniZQI
into the ditch along the grass so I wouldn’t620Please respect copyright.PENANAvXTMRRC9oH
harm anyone else in the process. But I620Please respect copyright.PENANAyr9Xecctda
didn’t do either, even though I620Please respect copyright.PENANAkAKM8V82Mt
got so scared for a minute620Please respect copyright.PENANAZJu8CeRbjo
that I would.
I’m tired.620Please respect copyright.PENANAwsyNa65nvL
Last year on August 22nd, my birthday, I had a similar620Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6ZSaNltzL
reaction to suicidal thoughts. I had a rough620Please respect copyright.PENANAOCOxtN9G85
birthday; I worked, I was lonely, I felt620Please respect copyright.PENANAcsUtqwGrVw
pathetic, worthless, uncared for and forgotten620Please respect copyright.PENANACHAUb1zH24
so I took the sharpest and largest kitchen knife620Please respect copyright.PENANACkerIa8zQj
and I pressed the tip of it to my chest, above my heart620Please respect copyright.PENANAVh4TBMZOL1
and sobbed until I couldn’t sob anymore.620Please respect copyright.PENANAAa4C4gMChB
I did not press the sharp edge deep enough to620Please respect copyright.PENANAasggPhFEVk
draw blood, but it was the first time620Please respect copyright.PENANAid8hNqSk9S
I had allowed myself to620Please respect copyright.PENANAzAH602e2Fe
get so close to the temptation.
I’m tired.620Please respect copyright.PENANAtoEs3fmXZQ
I say that I want to die a lot, even though I never620Please respect copyright.PENANAL5YI0fT4xW
actually reach out and go through with it620Please respect copyright.PENANAAqhFnim0N5
I think because I’m afraid of not existing620Please respect copyright.PENANArAq8fx86HT
just as I’m afraid of existing. And lately I620Please respect copyright.PENANArfzQWEMAov
have people who reach out to me when I’m not sure620Please respect copyright.PENANAMt71HAW7xE
how to reach out to them, and it’s sweet to have people620Please respect copyright.PENANAck79kMwIgH
support me, but I go right back to wanting to isolate myself620Please respect copyright.PENANAS51kCL9BP4
and give up. I have thought about dying every day620Please respect copyright.PENANAIUqhRjFWAL
for the last few weeks and I wish I could just620Please respect copyright.PENANAjd6yl6JPN6
go through with it.
I’m tired.620Please respect copyright.PENANAdJjGVEjShP
I’m so tired of being forgotten, of arguing620Please respect copyright.PENANAK4jZ32Orfv
for people to care about me when they should620Please respect copyright.PENANAQZZBrZMRq3
care about me on their own. I often think that620Please respect copyright.PENANASyKT0wFiOb
I should just stop putting in such an effort for those that620Please respect copyright.PENANAcuKNWqb84v
do not consider me, but I can’t seem to stop caring.620Please respect copyright.PENANAku4kh5gAiO
She often hurts me more than she improves my life620Please respect copyright.PENANA2owurWoHeF
but I’m too afraid to say anything because620Please respect copyright.PENANArk4D8KvVdx
I need her. I need her to exist620Please respect copyright.PENANAh0485Bx0kO
in my existence, and I need her to620Please respect copyright.PENANAeH12dtAey2
be by my side.620Please respect copyright.PENANAOC5hV26zKb
But I’m tired.
I’m tired620Please respect copyright.PENANABdqwRDassl
of being tired620Please respect copyright.PENANAdGKhic4J4F
in this tiring life.
