A Letter To Anyone
Dear Everyone,
I think I'm failing life.
My brain tries to decide what's important,
But it always gets it wrong.
What am I even doing?
Missing homework,
Missing friends,
Missing a purpose.
Can you help me?
Motivation doesn't exist,
At least not in my brain.
I need it, if I am to do anything
With this giant list of things
That need to be done.
Due dates loom over my head,
Branches after a long rain
Ready to drench me in water
At the slightest touch.
I'm drowning in the raindrops.
Or my teardrops.
I can't tell the difference.
