Skint

Been working so damn hard,

Lately,

Nothing seems to come to me,

Easily.

 

Bills to pay, mortgages to keep,

Diligently,

Trying to stay on top of this,

Consciously.

 

Money comes, Money goes,

Quickly,

Leaving little else to work on,

Becoming thrifty.

 

May need to look more,

Deeply,

See what is going on,

Internally.

 

Questions have I,

Historically,

Watching others around me,

Figuratively.

 

Picked up behaviours,

Mistakenly,

Trying to recalibrate,

Great difficulty.

 

Realise its not my world,

Externally,

Changing mindset to go forward,

Proactively.

 

Plan ahead, get guidance,

Mentoring,

Think of hierachy of needs,

Progressively.

 

Had enough of going back to square one,

Frsutratingly,

Losing faith in my judgement,

Sadly.

 

All will become good,

Finally,

Feel good in the end,

Fullfilling.
