Tired

Life, A light in a dark tunnel in which shes been walking all of her existence Never really understanding the meaning of her existence Only that shes here Here in a place that doesn’t accept her anymore than her white father That sees her as just another spot on his shoe Another bone in his closet Another ,tax write off when its convenient See but none of that matters anymore See because that light is her salvation A solution to her situation A stop to the pain See she finally figured it out If I pull this trigger Or drink this poison Maybe hang myself with some of the stained rags that have been covered with my fears Then maybe Just maybe it will finally be about me Maybe for once someone will look in my face without thinking about that thing below my waste Maybe for once someone will smile when memories of me are mentioned Maybe for once someone else will cry Because im tired Tired of sleepless nights when uncle roger wanted to be touched And countless days when mommy needed her little helper to make her feel better Im just tired And all I want to do Is turn off this damn light
