Proverbs Afterthought

Tired
of living the same,
day by day.
Here I stay,
stuck in a hypothetical rut.
Tires spinning,
I want to feel like enough.
Sick
of not forgiving myself.
Wisdom is wealth,
follow her now,
I just have to be taught how.
I'm learning how to follow through,
with chasing something new.
There is so much left to learn,
for a normal life I yearn.

You already have a "normal" life! To change your life, change your attitude! Aloha!

Write it out, write it out! You're not spinning, writing is catharsis, and it helps a lot.
