Don't you just hate the sound of ticking noise of the clock is all you can hear? tick tock it wont stop Eyes wide open because your mind is thinking of all the things you need to do. Have to do. Haven't done nothing at all about it. Things I wish I was doing but ain't because of obligations that have me chain down to the ground. I work everyday from one job to another A lot sleepless days And hopeless nights Hoping one day hard work will pay off Sacrifice never is harder than when your going through it Living to one day pay it back to the people who mean the most to me A lot of broke days and people burning your ears up with complaints that leave you feeling helpless Some days it feels like it ain't worth it and some days it feels maybe we going to make it Or make the biggest mistake of our loves Tired of being tired I just wanna be happy What does that even look like anymore?? Wanna love what I do and do what I love My own selfish crime wishing I had more time My poetry is how I pass time and free my mind Going thru too many emotions Have to file in the back of my mind under overwhelmed and stressed but trying to remember I am blessed I have more than most Keep on working till I can't work no more I am fortunate beyond words I have to be unbreakable even if I feel like breaking down
