I don’t want to die but I’m just tired of living

I don’t want to die but I’m just tired of living

This heart of mine is tired

Of the bleakness of every day

Of the pain in its veins

Of the constant beating

This brain of mine is tired

Of thinking

Of the flaws

Of the responsibilities

This body of mine is tired

Of moving

Of the heaviness

Of the aches and pains

I am tired of the constant demands of the day

Tired of the morning light and the singing birds

Tired of it all
