I'M Going To Bed, Said Mr Bell
I didn't sleep well.
Matter of fact,
I never do.
Sleepless nights, week after week. Early morning, yearning, for something to improve my state of being.
A being, which seems to me as more of a prison, than a life.
It never gets better.
Rooms filled with people, eager to learn, but yet I'm just;
So, so, tired.
Walking instead of sleeping. People passing my pale cheeks without a notice. I'm invisible. Like a ghost among men, never to be acknowledged.
Growing weary of it all. This life of mine is more like a slow walk towards the coffin. A walk towards the land of six-feet-under. And I'm tired.
Oh, so tired.
