Exhausted Routine

Tera Kira

Corner of a page

Clipped and torn away

Days filled with nothing but complaints

I’m too tired to live another day

Faking a smile to hide the rush

This annoying heartbeat won’t hush

Looking around, searching for a sign

But there’s no answer for this soul of mine

The only thing I let out of my mouth

Was a heavy sigh, drifting south

Drifting through the fog, aimlessly

Floating and vanishing, pointlessly

Exclusive emotions, cold and dry

Idealistic theories coloring the sky

A scripted smile, practiced and neat

Masking the taste of a bitter defeat

That’s how I stayed

Giving up on the game I played

Studying faces, reading the room

Providing the model answer for the gloom

Self-sacrificing, day after day

Just consuming myself, wasting away

The shadows grow, I cover my eyes

Facing the misery, seeing through lies

Standing still, frozen in the cold

Just like the stories that were never told

And so I repeat, silently and slow

This miserable life, with nowhere to go

Buried in guilt, blaming only me

Fading hope that I’ll never see

Lamenting with a self-mocking grin

Deceiving the truth that’s hidden within

A dull, grey heart, caught in the middle

Trying to solve an impossible riddle

If that’s the case, then let it break

Let it crumble for heaven's sake

It’s fine... let it end

"You are who you are

Don't you ever forget that."

"Live for the 'now'."

"Your life is not a prize for someone else to take

This life belongs to you, and you alone."

"Time is limited and precious

Please, carry it forward, and connect it to the future."
