Je suis fatigué


Does your halo ever get heavy?
                    -my sister, to me. 


Je suis fatigué.
Not of love
But of looking for it.

Je suis fatigué.
Not of life
But of living it.

Je suis fatigué.
Not of dreaming
But of trying to live my dreams.

Je suis fatigué.
Not of noise
But of screaming and no one hearing.

Je suis fatigué.
Not of knowing the answers
But of no one seeing my raised hand towering above all other raised hands.

My arms are tired.
I
Am
Tired.

Very.

I read your prose and then turned around and re-read it and thoroughly understand the sentiments expressed.
