So good that I don’t
Care how things go
For if it meant to end.
I’m okay for I’ve been doing so
Much that I realize that everything.
Will be okay either way
I realize that this may be a game to you
But I don’t have time to play around anymore.
So I will deal with you later but for now, enjoy your time in my life.

Want to play anymore
This isn’t a game.
This my life in your hands
And I’m not naive anymore
I’ve grown and I’m tired of doubting
Myself and my gift.
Things are changing and yes the stress is coming too.
But to relax I got a lot of work to do and I’m on top of it this time around.

Here
But I feel trapped
In a moment of
Uncertainty
And it’s just dragging me down.
A black hole that I’ve been in before.
It’s been a long time but I won’t stay
down for long I hope.

apart as
the feeling of everything being drained from me.
My energy
But not my hope to get things done.
As I some how find enough energy to go on
and accomplish what I need to do today.
No more letting things get in the way
but doing what I need to do anyway.
As I finally break the hold procrastination has had on my life all this time.

Been days
But it feels
Too long
To be away.
The words not flowing through my mind.
Wasn’t something new but felt like a punishment.
Couldn’t just sit down and write it out
Just sat and stared as if the words would magically appear.
But unlike a fairytale nothing I wished for came true.
The end result still the same
No words on paper or on the screen.
Just closing the phone and laptop and hoping tomorrow brings more joy.
And some words that will light up this place again.

To escape
To another
Place
As my reality
Feels so great.
The days are cold
And afternoons so warm.
That I get lose in doing so many great things
That time is going by so fast and life seems so full of opportunities.
That there is nothing left to complain about.
As everything once negative is now a positive moment.

Fowc with Fandango-Vehement
So passionate about her work
That if you asked her about it.
You were in for a treat
She strongly believed that her way of thinking.
Was the only way to go
And as she tried to cram all her idea into your head.
You would have to politely decline her offer for your mind.
Couldn’t take all her craziness in one session.
But, you won’t be coming back to hear more either.
For her forceful ways were not just in her words but her hand gesture too.
And being accidentally slapped in the arm one or two times is enough for me.
To walk away and accept she won’t change and there will be more victims.

Late and yet I still
I’m here in the dark.
Trying to find my way out
Maybe I shouldn’t have stayed so late.
I stumbled and I hold on the things
Before I could finally see the light and make my way back to bed.
And as I sleep and drift off into the darkness again.
Know this time will be different.
