[Nell]: 226.Poetry.This is Me

I am tired of thinking
The waves of my imagination
Crash into the cliffs of my reality
And bring nothing but limp seaweed

I am tired of thinking
The staircase circles down
Down into infinite darkness
I trip and fall, as I am blind

I am tired of thinking
Perceptions are unproven
To go down, to go up
To light upon nothing

I am tired of thinking
To scream so hard
My window breaks
Shards of piercing distortion

I am tired of thinking
Stop, silence
Breathe, cry
Live on

I am tired of thinking
Knowledge is a journey of the soul
To take emptiness, rip it apart, and sew it back together
That is the fabric of creation and self
