I'm Tired..............
I'm tired of waiting for replies that come too late,
As if my heart could patiently negotiate with fate.
I'm tired of words that turned so cold, so neat, so small,
Like I was never someone worth remembering at all.
I'm tired of watching strangers take my place with ease,
While I become a memory carried off by the breeze.
I'm tired of being traded for a face I've never known,
Learning that even love can leave you standing all alone.
I'm tired of being taken for granted every day,
Giving all I had, while you looked the other way.
Thousands of silent efforts, scattered like the rain,
None of them were enough to make you stay the same.
Now every promise echoes like a ghost inside my mind,
Searching for the version of you I'll never find.
If only I had known how this story would undo,
Perhaps I'd have protected the heart I gave to you.
Some nights I whisper to the dark with nothing left to say,
Wishing we'd been strangers who had never crossed one day.
Because forgetting you feels harder than the pain I knew,
And every goodbye keeps finding its way back to you.
