Two weeks ago,
I said farewell.
To my home.
To my country.
To my family and friends.
My time away was relaxing.
The people were lovely.
But honestly,
I'm dealing with re-entry.
People expect me to just fit in,
But I'm suffering from jet lag,
And am ready to sleep.
If I could just catch a break,
A week, maybe two.
I could get back to normal,
Get my life back on track.
But no.
This is the problem;
Life goes on,
A sink or swim situation.
If you can't catch up,
You're out.
Just like that.
