Everyone always asks her "are you okay?"
And she replies with "yeah just tired"
And they don't think much of it.
But they do not know that she wasn't
just physically tired, no. She meant emotionally tired. She was tired
of falling asleep to the screams
in her head. Tired of her friends
leaving her because she's not
the same anymore. Tired of the
way her parents treat her. She's
just tired. But still, when she's asked
if she's ok, just says "yeah, just tired"
