Burnout
Coughing up phlegm
Heart weighing on my chest, begging to be relieved
Eyes strained from making sense of direction
I’ve worked to the point where it all leads one way…
Never enough
Strive for more
Make those plans
What happened to the plans from five years before?
Where did they go?
To ---
Snap out of it
Every day is a new beginning
So they say
Time to “right” what was “wronged”
Whatever that means
What if my goal isn’t rightness?
But freedom?
