Just Venting

My sleep schedule is like a person in prison for stealing

Like ocean waves during a storm

My energy thinks it’s the sun, hiding behind clouds

Because where has it gone

I should be very excited

But honestly I just want peace and quiet

I have 200 lbs weights for eyes

Can’t keep them open even if my life depends on it

But I’m starting something new today

Fear and tiredness are starting to consume me

And Don’t get me started on person who I thought wanted to be with me

See, my mind is everywhere, just flying in the air

I know you think you helping me but I don’t really care

You just pushing your worries on me and that’s not fair

I told you what bothered me and that person was you

Now leave me alone and let me do what I do
