Tired

When somebody asks if I'm feeling okay

I say that I'm tired, and that's all that I say

But tired is not what I actually feel

I cover those feelings, which are actually real.

T

The Trials that drive me insane

The Turmoil that always comes with disdain.

The Terrible Thoughts that I keep in my brain

The Trifles I suffer I just can't maintain

I

The Inevitable failure to which I abide

The Invisible feeling I feel deep inside.

The Internal thoughts that smother my pride.

The Impossible walls that make me want to hide.

R

The Ruining factors that make everything fall.

The Reputation I want, but the stairs are too tall.

The Ropes that tie me and make me feel small.

The Rewards That I never reach, never seen them at all.

E

The Emotions I try but can never confess

The Expressions I put on my face, the fake happiness

The Expectations they have that continue to press.

The Excuses I make to make sure they don't guess

D

The Downfalls I have when I want to succeed

The Different obstacles to which I must heed

The Defining traits that I don't want to need

The Draining places I go where I feel like a weed

 

So yes I am tired, but not as in sleep

I wish I could have those good feelings to keep

And yes, while I do have good times anew

Inside I feel like I'm stuck, nothing to do.

Everyone else just seems like they have everything together and I feel like I am just lagging behind and just getting further and further away from my goals.

I wish I knew how to just be like everyone else.

*hugs even more* (I'm not great with words, but here goes)

No one is like everyone else, but it's hard feeling like you're the only one on your half of the universe, and if you're tired anyway this can be really hard. You're not failing; you need a break. Get some sleep, go for a walk, talk to someone if you want to, read a book, punch a cushion, ignore everything I've said and do whatever works for you. It will get better. And until then, you don't have to stand in the rain. 

*hugs a lot*

Yeah, but when I try to take a break, I end up farther behind, and then people pester me about getting work done, which draws negative attention, and then I'm back where I started.

But also:

*hugs back*

Is it possible to try and convey to those people, in some way, that you're struggling? If it's not then that's understandable but also in my experience people tend to be more okay with it than you might expect? That's my single worldview though. *hugs so much your ribs almost break, but not quite because that would be unhelpful*

I just don't want to be the "broken kid" or anything, and I feel like telling anyone would just draw more attention to me. And I don't know if it would be good or bad attention.

Yeah no this is in fact a major part of my life

i feel broken but not broken enough to deserve attention. I have a lot of little mental health issues that i keep under my thumb and never make serious problems

but its okay to ask for help even if youre not about to kill yoursrlf or smt.
