Tired
By Gentherly Coronado My eyes close. For, I am tired. My mind is close. I cannot think straight. My mind is aching. My mind is desiring sleep. But I also desire to disappear. I just really don’t want to be here. I can feel the cold air on my skin. The shivers in my hair. I feel such details but I really don’t care. I can hear your voice. You speak with correct grammar. But my mind is elsewhere. You speak with a squeak. They answer your questions. And, I’m just here, sitting. Not doing anything, really. But my mind is too weak to think. I’m too tired to speak. I’m too exhausted to act out things. I regret staying up till midnight. I even forgot why I did, from exhaustion. I’m confused about anything and everything. Oh, please just leave me be. Walk away from me. Ignore me completely. Act like I’m not even there. I’m nonexistent as I sleep. Gentherly is an 11th grade student. She is currently a Poetry Today student.
