I Am An Adult

I’ve become an adult and I now have things to do. I work 8 hours a day Shower my teeth, brush my body Walk my car and drive my dog when needed I’m a busy man. I’ve got it all under control. I files my taxes and documents in the same cabinet Feed my pet weekly Visit my dentist monthly, my doctor yearly and my psychiatrist weekly I take my medication when needed and not as prescribed. I’m healthy. I’m active. This includes frequent walks to the fridge for both snacks and beverages. Only sugar free I say but the rest of the food pyramid is free game My daily step count and heart rate per minute are eerily similar My breathing audible because I put effort into every breath unknowingly. I’m okay. I’m okay. I am okay. I tell myself this everyday. I tell myself this everyday. But secretly, I ask myself Will I ever really be okay? I’ve become an adult.
