A Letter to My Forever Flaw


Dear Destroyer of Motivation,

You are a shapeshifter. A manipulator.

You can appear harmless,

like a sweet humming in my ear.

You can be found anywhere.

In phones, my bed, the stars.

You are limitless.

You are everywhere.

I must work hard to fight against you,

to keep myself aware.

For if I do not,

I will lose my will to care.

Forever yours,

M
