LIFE IN MY 20’s
Photo by Dev Asangbam on Unsplash

I use to be a happy person and now,

Night becomes my day,

All i can see myself is in a broken mirror left to break completely and be abandoned

By Dan Dumitriu on Unsplash

I use to be a carefree person,

But now that thing called trust is no longer there

Everything and everyone around me now acts different

Even the so called walls have ears now

By Long Truong on Unsplash

I use to be an outside kind of girl

But now the energy is no longer there

I feel I’m already tired of such life

I feel I’m old enough to take life seriously now

But I’m not even in my late 20’s or even my mid 20’s yet

That thing called adrenaline is all gone now

I think i caused it in a way, but I’m just trying to get enveloped,

so many hate, misunderstanding and misconceptions, dishonesty, lack of trust in my 20’s.

I used to be a pushover kind of girl

I get toss around by people i hold dearly to heart,

But i think I’m ready to take the bull by it’s horn now.

By Brooke Cagle on Unsplash

I used to be a happy girl

Until that thing called depression started creeping in slowly,

Peer pressure from friends and social media has gotten the best of me,

I know that i will come out of this,

But i just don’t know when and how.
