The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Tired

Days go by,

Oozing past me,

Time slows today.

 

But today will never end,

Life being sucked out-

Enegry is lacking.

 

Don't know how,

This could've happened.

But I just feel oh so very-

 

Tired.

i really like this!

the short line length, as if you haven't the energy even to continue the thought in one mental "breath" - by the last full line you can feel the exhaustion.

This IS good. A suggestion: If you want to really draw out the exhaustion at the end of the poem, give "oh" "so" and "very" their own lines...

oh

so

very-

 

tired

 

or,

 

oh so

very-

 

tired.

 

Tis just a suggestion to play with... No need to listen to my ramblings... Spacing is a great way to get across what you're trying to express.
