Letting go, but still holding it in... pretending to be okay

Whew!

(Tired of you)


I blew.
Exhaled hard.
Wasn't tired,
but I blew as if I was.

"What's the matter?"
You. Your lies. Just you...
But didn't say it; only thought it.

And like always,
I just blew.
Exhaled hard,
as if tired was all I was.
