I write until my fingers and thumbs are bruised,
My eyes fuzzy from the light of my phone screen.
Constantly comparing my writing to those I love,
An annoyance of why I can't even pick up my own book,
or why I have thousands of ideas yet im still stumped

Or why I haven't found my muse,
or why I haven't eaten in days,
I rot In my own bed for days in a stench that drowns my senses,
a constant headache lingering,

I was joyful before I indulged myself in meaningless words in hopes I'd become a writer,

When I stop being tragic I will breathe.
