Tired Poem by Keifer Johnson

I’m tired
Tired of fights,
Tired of screams,
Tired of nightmares,
Instead of dreams.
Tired of anger,
Tired of hating,
Tired of sitting,
Tired of waiting.
I’m waiting,
Waiting for love,
Waiting for peace,
Getting an apple,
When others get feasts.
Waiting and thinking,
Of what to do,
Waiting for a chance,
Waiting for you.
You
You’re my thought,
Before I sleep,
You’re the one,
I want to keep.
You’re what I see,
You’re in my path,
But it seems what I want,
I cannot have.
I’ll wait for you,
I’ll wait for you,
If that’s what you need,
Until the day,
I hope to read,
“I’ve made my choice,
I know what to do,
I’ve thought about it,
And I chose you.”
