Do I

Believe this is genuinely what I want

The truth I don’t know anymore

And even though I still light up everytime I think of it.

Still I sit here doing nothing about it

So drained you think I was a statue

If only I didn’t have to blink and pee

Would you even know I got up and moved at all.

What have I become

Not the women I had hoped to be

But the truth I had no hopes this year and well maybe that explains why everything is up in the air.

So what do I want now

And will I do something about it.

Or will I sit here and embrace what my new normal is?

And will this be who I become, or will I wake up tomorrow and see that what im feeling is okay.

But I must finish this, for timing won’t always be on my side.

Maybe this time next week I could have accomplished something and for once not look at the blank canva in front of me as if the artwork will appear on its own.

Music

Get me away from the noises of this place

It’s too loud today, and as I lie down and put the music on.

The peace flows around me like a blanket of protection.

And I can finally feel the tension on my shoulders release, and I slowly relax for the first time today.

If only the song didn’t have to end. As I fall asleep, I hope the loud parts won’t scare me awake.

Soon, I knew I had drifted off when music became a part of my dreams.

Daily Prompts

What quality

What quality do you value most in a friend?

Do I value most in a friend?

Being open-minded and supportive and honest and loyal.

A friend who allows me to live on my terms and knows when to be there for me with support and honesty, even when the truth can be harsh to hear!

Also, I need someone I can trust who knows that life can be tough, who knows how I am, and who sometimes meets me halfway.
