Sometimes
I want to give up
& call it quits.
I’m so tired.
The same
Old pretence game
Where I play
Being ‘normal’
Sometimes
I wish I never grew
And became me
Why bother-
Because it hurts
To even breathe
sometimes.
& when the world
Hates who you are
It hurts to smile-
& cover the holes
In that ‘hi’.
Sometimes
I wish I could fly
& never, never
Come back again.

This is such an incredible piece of thought you have penned here love. An insignificant feeling searing reality as you know it... I have been there, faking those same smiles - just hoping that no one can see the pain dripping from the cracks. Great expressive piece hun!!! Very well spoken!

OH MY. This is one of your best pieces yet.
And anyone who disagrees is a fool (:
Yea, we all have those moments when we're just too tired to live our lives. Exasperation and depression kicks in and as for me, when I feel this way, boy, do I feel blue.
But there are also moments when you realise that there are some things that are worth living for (:
"Sometimes
I wish I could fly
& never, never
Come back again."
I loved these lines. It ended the poem perfectly
