Messy Writing

Once, this was my joy My happy place Then I my first laptop To spend all my time on MySpace Now the doom scrolling keeps me chained to my seat My weight has gone up And my home is no longer Neat I hate that this is rhyming I hate the lack of structure I want to write again Because life has been so lack-luster This is bad, terrible, appalling I absolutely hate it But I gotta start somewhere To get the juices flowing There are so many stories floating through my head My goal is to get at least a few of them written before I am dead Of dragons and dwarves, Adventure and romance Maybe a memoir where I'll talk about our wedding where I refused to dance But my life in the beginning is not all candy and sunshine my life has been full of highs and lows, but at least it is mine Maybe I'll write a book of assorted poetry, or my glassing craft Maybe these are silly ideas, but Maybe someone needs to read my words to find their liferaft This is so cheesy, so messy, so cringe But anything worth doing is worth the time try How Overwhelming! my therapist is Right? Time to put my phone down to allow this emotional cry
