New beginnings

Things go
Things change
Life is difficult
And strange

I'm tired
yet enraged
I am bitter
Yet engaged
In this new stage of life

Tired of trying to be right
I just want to get a good amount of sleep
at night

I'm alright
I'm almost
There
I'm sleepy
And scared
And in no way prepared
For what comes next

My eyes droop
It's time for bed
But I have
Way too many thought in my head

Not all are nasty
Not all are kind
But now it's time to unwind
In a new world

I'll wake up tomorrow
With my biggest stress gone
And hopefully
I'll have the will left to move on
And get up
And go to work
And sleep some more

This is the last night
With six hours of sleep
This is the last night
I will be this me
This uninspired me
This thing that needs
Saving
That needs tending to
I'm sick of bending to
The will of others
Because I'm scared
To start fresh

So here I go
To the great unknown
For the 50th time.

And once again,
I am not ready

And once again,
I am okay with that
