Analysis of Weary



Painstakingly frustrated
A prisoner to stress
Mentally ambushed
As I succumb to a mental mess
Hanging on by a thread
Despite my many efforts and tries
As the light nourishing my spirit
Gradually dies
Isolated like an island
And completely alone
My vulnerability right now
Is the main thing being shown
Beyond the point of being fragile
Since I already feel shattered inside
I'm starting to grow weary
Waiting for my stress to subside.
