    Tired, Restless, and Weary
    I lie awake staring
    Staring into the night
    There is not a single light
    And I am forgotten

    You dont see me cry
    You know not where my heart lies
    There is a smile on your face
    Im glad to see you are happy
    Go on living

    Ill be fine
    Just leave me behind
    Just go on prentending Im not here
    You dont see me
    And you dont care

    This is my miserable story
    This is my last good bye
    I take my last bow
    On this stage of love
    And I will leave you with this, only a kiss

    Now chosse your path
    Ride it well
    This is my final farewell
    So sleep sweet angel
    And walk on by
    And pay no attention to me cry

    i really enjoyed your poem. i feel like that a lot. i'd like to share part of the lyrics of one of my favorite songs...it is similar in that it talks about bowing on the stage of life...this is the end of the song, lifts me up everytime


    despair, can ravage you
    if you turn your head around to look down the path
    that's led you here,
    cause what can you change?
    you're a vessel now floating down the waterways.
    you can take your rudder and aim your ship,
    just don't bother with the things left in your wake.
    just sail belly up to the clouds,
    the rocks scraping your back.
    to breathe in the air
    will be the only thing that you have
    and your love will be warm nights
    with pockets of moonlight
    spotlighting you as you drift,
    the actor in this play.
    and you walk across the stage,
    take a bow, hear the applause,
    and as the curtain falls,
    just know you did it all
    the best that you knew how
    and you can hear them cheering now.
    so let a smile out and show your teeth
    cause you know you lived it well.

    saves the day - "this is not an exit"
