Fatigue

Tired of you being on my mind…
Mired in disgust, with so much unkind.

Worried for innocent souls between.
Hurried from health & humored by screens.

Petty with love & jealous of strength.
Ready to tarnish a whole life’s length.

Weary of calculating damage.
Leery of trusting you to manage…

The hope & funds required to support.
Cede all the dishonest tears you squirt.

Wall’s getting thick; coated in your fears.
All makes sense, you’d resent proud queers.

Withdrawal from kith & kin’s been noticed.
This quarrel: destructive as locusts.

Harrowed by all you did & will do.
My marrow’s tired of thinking of you.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
