Tired
Nick Kinder

The nights are restless

We all just ache for sleep

I’m at a loss for how to handle this
I’m existing, I’m present

I can’t provide rhymes or lines
I’m just tired, is all

I want to write a book
I want to make them all proud

These words are mediocre
Maybe it just won’t come back to me

I’m just tired, is all

Can’t forgive anymore

Forgot to eat again
Haven’t talked in months
Forgetting faces of  them

I’m just tired, is all

My alarm broke the emptiness
I feel the need to write

Why am I not asleep?
I’m just tired, is all
