I'M Tired

I'm tired of all these fears
I'm tired of my tears
I'm tired of so much ache
That's why my smiles are fake

What should I call it when all I'm feeling is pain
Then loved one's look at me and all I see is shame
I don't want them knowing exactly how I suffer
Crying so much each and every day is even tougher

I feel like this is an all time low
Nothing can make me happy so darkness begins to grow
No joy, no hope, no drive
It's all a failure to strive
Only confusion and doubt
All this suffering and I still can't speak out

Life is unfair with all this anguish I can't bare
And the way I feel is too hard to share
This endless sorrow is so tough to live through
Why do I always have to be so sad and blue

I'm tired of all these fears
I'm tired of my tears
I'm tired of so much stress 
And not being able to express 

Dreadfully sad to know what's true
And how could I not have a clue
Some will believe I just didn't care 
Even I want to know how I was not aware

People around try to pretend
What I am going through they comprehend
Then these people talk about me behind my back
And this just causes me to have another panic attack

I realize I need help some kind of support
Because this will just get worse when it's time for court
He has already taken too much and caused so much pain
So why should I give him more satisfaction when he is the one insane
Give sometime for me to get back to being me 
One day I'll be strong again so I can be free

I'm tired of all these fears 
I'm tried of my tears
I'm tired of so much pain
So this, I'm trying to explain

Misty, I can feel your emotions in this poem.. it does get tiring to keep fighting, only to feel Like nobody cares, I hope you will fund solace here with expressing yourself through writing.. I am a writer also, it's the only way I feel safe with expressing myself. Great job!!
