I really want to let things go
And learn to live in ebb and flow.
But as I try to reach the top,
I cannot help but create and stop.
I hype myself up through out the days,
Try to remind myself it’s just a phase,
But when the dreaded day of bills arrives
I begin to feel my panic arise.
What if I cannot get the money again?
And then I all but start to spin.
As if the number in my account,
Has some meaning of my amount.
I look left and right to find a way,
To create more dollars without delay.
Spread out to multiple sources,
In hope that it will stop this capital forces.
And well I try to tell myself to just breath
It will all be over if I could just leave.
My anxieties and panicking thoughts
Before my brain truly rots.
About the Creator
Lane Burns
I am a Poet and an inspiring short story, one day novel writer.
I like to write in free verse mostly, but am heavily inspired by Emily Dickenson, and tend to create my own rules and ideas as well.
