And Oh My God....

By TheUltimateOutlaw

A shatter
And a moment

And work in 5 hours

And no cigarettes

And oh my god

What am I doing here?

I’m waiting for an opportune moment
To disappear
And disappoint

And failing

To have the patience required.

I’ve been

Shattered

For days.

And breaking down
For weeks

And yet I keep
Trudging through?

And I don’t know

How?

Much longer

I can

Keep

This

Up.

    Not sure if this was intential, but the way the last 5 lines get smaller toward the end of the poem really added to the way this reads. This really captures the last few years of my life until I could no longer keep it up. Powerful write.
