Boring Person

I’m so tired,

of being the same boring person everyday.


I wake up in daze,

on autopilot

barely ready to start the day.


I rush through necessities,

and throw on what seems ok.


Blinking to stay awake,

but eyes heavier than 10,000 grains,

even my body has overused this routine.


I slump from class to class,

hearing the white noise from teachers

and classmates.


Sleeping long or short

no matter what,

still too tired to sort.


Feeling a bit ashamed,

but it's probably just myself to blame.

This poem talks a lot about me, and my experiences with the stress of routine and early mornings. My process on a hard day, and how I usually get through them.
