Needing My Own Space

Needing My Own Space

A Chapter by therisa

Feel so tired
Of this struggle
To keep wearing
This happy face
To the world.

Just want
To find a place
Where I don't feel
This need to lie
About my emotions
Anymore.

Being able
To say
"Bleep you"
To the world
And walk away.

Instead of
Having to answer
For the thousandth time.

Why
I'm not smiling
Or laughing
At your stupid
And inane jokes.

Not like
You'll understand
What's consuming me.

Nor
Want to.

it happens to all of us sometimes we feel sick of trying and struggles, we just pretend wearing a happy face to cope with the world. But you know as good times difficult times also pass away. So it's like the policy change there is always a mrning after dark and dark after a morning, it keeps going and perhaps this is what the life is called.
Nice write.

Thank you, Armin, for kind words, in your review. Was feeling a tad down, upon myself, last night.
