I'm tired Tired of being a party of one Tired of watching couples walk hand and hand through the coffee-shop window Tired of feeling empty Tired of feeling misunderstood Tired of having my heart broken by men who don't meet my standards to begin with Tired of seeing so much potential in a person only to be let down Tired of waiting for the phone to ring Tired of waiting for a knock on the door Tired of looking up every time someone walks by Tired of hoping it might be you Tired of being left because my past isn't all roses and sunshine Tired of being penalized because of my strength and independence Tired of falling asleep at night holding my pillow Tired of crying over people who just don't give a damn Tired of only being hit on by bums Tired of living vicariously through the couples on T.V. Tired of hoping you'll change Tired of hoping you'll notice Tired of waiting for you to let me in Tired of coming in second Tired of lighting candles for myself Tired of listening to love songs and having no one to dance with Tired of not having someone's hand to hold Tired of walking around the city alone Tired of not having someone to curl up and watch a movie with Tired of being so "cool" amd "cute" and "funny" Tired of only being told "I love you" by my mom Tired of this chair next to me being empty Tired of being unappreciated Tired of being looked at in pity Tired of paying for my own movie ticket Tired of putting-out to keep you around Tired of feeling guilty for not sleeping with you Tired of feeling comfort in solitude Tired of being told to be patient Tired of being told "it's not you" Tired of finding happiness in my memories Tired of feeling inadaquate Tired of being attractive to guys who just want to f*%$ me and leave Tired of not feeling the warmth of an embrace I'm tired of being alone -Brianne **sorry for spelling, no spell check** |

Brianne...this was a piece of my own life it seems. Find your comfort in the fact that we all share this feeling from time to time. I enjoyed your post immensely. ------------------ For sometimes when the Darkness falls, we must surrender, take what is ours, and give what we can, and always remember love is somewhere waiting... |
