Mar 2013
and I sit here
and wait for something
to change
expecting change to magically
happen inside of me
waiting instead of doing
putting off instead of doing
putting off instead of doing
why do when I can just put off?
I will eventually do it,
or forget to do it.
Then I will have an excuse, I forgot.
a valid excuse.
I keep telling myself
that I need to change my ways,
be more on top of things,
get things done.
but I don’t act.
I say, tomorrow will be the day
i change.
it all starts tomorrow.
then tomorrow is today
and nothing happens.
so I say, tomorrow will be the day!
then today is yesterday
and tomorrow is today
and nothing has happened.
I feel no different,
no different than yesterday. responsibility can wait,
I am too tired
and it is too heavy
so tired
all I can say is
tomorrow will be the day.
