A Lifetime for Learning
#WritcoPoemPrompt45
Write a poem been inspired by a project or task be completed – whether it’s crossing something off the never-ending to-do list, or a project you have worked on for a long time.
Self-Confidence
Self-Acceptance
Self-Love
Motivation
Everyday I wake up
and lie still as the wave of anxiety
crashes over me,
Still, trying to remember to breathe.
Zooming my classes is quite the trip
with freetime comes distractions and great responsibility
- and back aches -
all interfering with my academic abilities.
Self-confidence is really lacking
I know they say it's ADHD
but all I can think of is
it's really just me.
Self-Acceptance is supposed to take the stage
at some point in my life,
I'm supposed to give self-love,
tell myself, "It's all going to be alright."
A quick note on that:
I know it will be, it's just recently
I've felt so isolated and subject to my impulses
instead of putting anything to good use, academically or personally.
And a little on family life:
yes, I do feel incompetent
when the days go by
and I don't even notice, neither sunrise nor sunset.
I feel like I'm just wasting away
passing my days all alone
Having no place to call home
my heart is split and forlorn.
But, at the end of this struggle
the end of COVID, of college,
I hope I find true love
and have a brain full of knowledge!
And that, plus God,
will be My Motivation
cuz within and at the end of this all,
Dear God, I hope for Salvation.
As broken as I am,
I face each day with resolve
with a heart full of bandaids
- fancy bandaids, that'll dissolve!
But - I will go on fighting
taking each day as she comes
ever moody, ever shifting, and nonetheless,
as she comes.
I have worked on this task for as long as I can remember
Questionning suicide at an early age and rejecting that surrender.
I'd rather go on fighting,
learning all the tips and tricks
than ever feel my demons delighting
over my feable attempt to win.
I'll put my heart and soul into everything I do
Every day, ever night
until my lips turn blue,
or my soul dissapears from sight.
It's a never-ending to-do list, for sure,
seeing as how I create my own problems and all
but I'll solve them at my leisure
and learn what I learn from my faults.
