Tired

Tired of broken pencils flying at me. Their graphite claws reaching For my saddened heart. Tired of the children’s cries. As their frustrations stab Into my tangled mind. Tired of communication Yelling of hatred pierce My infected ears. Tired of living in negativity. Damaging my health broken As well as my damned spirit.

that's a really sad image. someone throwing pencils at someone else. sounds like an abusive household or something. nicely portrayed.

I like this! It's dark, far from cheerful, but I can relate to the feeling in it. Well done!
