In times of despair
When all my thoughts rotate around numbers
whether it be weight-
or test scores,
my worth seems to amount to nothing.
All the nonsense in my head
seems... to stop
and I immediately conclude that I am a failure.
Sometimes I think I think this way,
because I like it.
But deep down I know it's because it's
true.
Everything that I've done, I am doing, or will do
seems to be deemed worthless
and I am afraid that when the time comes,
my existence will receive the same verdict.
l.a.
Hi everyone! It's been a while since I've written the poems in this book. Although they all hold a dear place in my heart and I do hope you enjoy reading them, I have decided to share some of my more recent thoughts/prose in a book called after hours. After hours is a collection of my prose/spoken word poetry/thoughts that I often have at night (hence, after hours). Feel free to check it out if you would like :)
