Tired Yet…

Empty spaces.
Nameless faces.

Feeling something familiar,
Then realizing that you don’t recognize it.

Escapades that take you through nothingness,
And leave you with feelings of hopelessness.

Pushing back memories,
Only to relive them every night before you sleep.

Waking up from a dream,
Disappointed because it wasn't reality.

Are you tired of deceiving me,
Deceiving yourself?

How much longer will you let,
This façade continue?

How much longer will I live inside of you?

Going mad within yourself…

Are you tired yet?
