Dozing off post-lunch when I should be working
Inevitably leads to poor self-esteem
Surfing the internet, seeing beautiful faces
That I will never meet.
Racing to get my work done, realizing it's never finished
Asking myself why I do this to myself
Can't I just have a normal work day?
Trying to write my fiction, even though I'm burnt out
Immortalizing these thoughts and characters
On the pages of a book, sometimes feels like a chore for later...
No. Now I think I'll write.

Beautiful 👏🏼 I like how you utilized the spirit of the word “distraction” in your acrostic to express what every writer and creator goes through… being distracted by the mundane aspects of life. “No. Now I think I’ll write.” <— words to live by.
