hello public

i know its sunday and the week's post is due.
but what if i don't feel like it?


in a world filled with naysayers,
i try my best to absorb the positivity.
but standing facing the sun,
does not guarantee you the light.


i'm just tired,
tired of trying.
tired of being pushed around.
tired of smiling.
tired of finding the light.
tired of being tired.


just give me a moment,
to lament in the shadows.
i will be back,
but when,
is another matter.
