Poem: Let Me Rest

Posted byDevin HoggPosted inPoetryTags:,

Why won’t you let me go
Let me rest
Let me sink into the deep
I weary of this world
Though I am a tender age
I tire of pain and loss
Of failure to be who I know I can be
Please turn the tables
Deal a new hand
There is only so much I can do
With the cards I’ve been dealt
I think I’ve reached my limit
Help me out or take my life
But for my sake
Please choose quickly
All I want is peace

My name is Devin Hogg. I was born and raised in Carnarvon, Ontario, Canada. I moved to Guelph, Ontario, Canada in 2009 for university and lived here ever since. In my free time, I enjoy reading, watching TV and movies, going on long walks, swimming, and practicing Chen style Tai Chi. I love to write poetry and blog regularly about topics such as mental health, sci-fi/fantasy series, faith, sexuality, and politics.
