#procrastinator
i'm a procrastinator barely getting anything done my body's a traitor never waking up and finish things but i guess procrastinators can be described in a beautiful way too- procrastinating is like when the tides fall back and the path between the islands appears guides us as we leave footprints along the path as the sun sets and the moon gives a soft glow and we wash away our regrets and finish our little trek <3

procrastinating
The deadline monsters Kept pounding on the door of my consciousness Their frantic, banging fists Threaten to reduce me to a paralytic heap of nothing but flesh and bones I can hear the horrible noises of splintering wood Fractured humerus The unnerving thwack of a body As it flung itself against my defenses. And yet I sit here Serene, unperturbed A posture of sheer pretentiousness Ignoring the violent growls of the monsters In my head. With glazed eyes And absent-minded numbness I watch Neflix.

Procrastinator
Maybe I dwell on things too much Keep on overthinking These thoughts are such predators Keep on consuming Me and my words, I never uttered Fear of ruining The things that might actually matter To me assuming Everything is ok, it can't be better Life not dooming That's why I'm such a procrastinator Keep on procrastinating

Procrastinator
A Vampire's Journal So calm the city night That quickens The heart of stone An awakening Of immoral desires The day will not condone These neon nights Never seem to dull A thirst for excitement At an endless beggar's ball The power of magic The star-struck eyes The crystal moon So high in the sky The illustrious fashions Of the filthy rich The seductive lure Which drives my itch Such smells and sights Has only the night As I turn to the shadows And take to flight Here I am sacred Here I am whole The night sets the stage For my favorite role ...

ONLY THE NIGHT
It hurts Not because of the void of today Not because I no longer get to call your name But because you know how much of a procrastinator I am You know, I'm disorganized, I never plan My vision has always been vacant But you want to know why it hurts? Why my ego and my pride took such a hit, the wounds still burn? It's because I envisioned a future I saw you and I, together I started planning, I created a calendar Just so our lives could fit better So, yeah, it doesn't hurt because of the present Or because of what happened then It hurts because letting you go meant letting go of our future Of the only source of certainty in my calendar

A procrastinator with a calendar
Something always present But never seen A presence that drags and pulls At your very being It dictates your actions and captures you In its' thrall It causes deaths and removes ideas' As you walk, covered in its' shawl It blocks out everything Emptying the mind Controlling the entire body Making one blind Boredom is an assassin Of the creative soul But is a creator and leader for some in a hole

Untitled As Yet (10w)
to do today or leave till tomorrow - a simple thought that only requires my procrastination. a sigh of tiredness hoping that it could only be done on a day that's not today. a wish of regret, coming on the last minute of when something could have been done before. a mere idea to be deepened over time after quite a while when i did it not today. having so many questions, questions, and more that will be answered never. then i think to myself, i can do it today [ but i can also do it not today. ]

not today
This is like one of those days when i'd tell myself i'd sleep early and be productive Yet i'll find myself stretching thinking twice whether or not will I rise

Lazy, procrastinating, worthless boy Who knew he’d topped his classes before? High school came and robbed his joy As his grades sank to the ocean floor He found solace in computer games While he kept his books tucked away ‘The lessons are hard, that’s all,’ he claims As Mom and Dad think he’s gone astray Senior year was his wake-up call To abandon the games and take up his books This was his final chance, after all And the deciding factor of how his future looks
