Motivation
Dear Self,
You get little to no sleep at night
And you constantly enter this depressive stage of your life
Where you have little to no motivation to do anything.
You zone out, and forget to do important things
You think way too much
And let your thoughts control you.
You have serious trust issues
Which causes you to keep this wall up
And handle your issues on your own.
You shut down for long periods of time
And become "stand-off ish"
Not to be rude or anti-social
But to pick yourself back up.
You keep to yourself
And have an "unapproachable look on your face"
That, combined with your blunt attitude
Can cause people to think you're a bitch.
But you're not a bitch
You just like space.
And there is nothing wrong with your unapproachable look
Or your blunt attitude.
And so what if you're consistently tired?
And you've learned to pick yourself up after your depressive period.
You can't allow that to bring you down.
You have things to do girl
Goals to accomplish
And a certain lifestyle to live.
You've gotten too far to quit on yourself now
"Bitch" "Rude" "Distant" "Forgetful"
"Anti-Social" "Mysterious" "Lazy" "Heartless"
Let them talk
You owe no one an explanation for the things you do
Or the things you say
Because at the end of the day
You're gonna get to your goals in life.
You got this
