Self Aware
if I know,
Not really though,
I don't even trust my judgement as far as I can throw.
What the hell do I know?
I mean,
My abilities are there,
But my determination is zero.
Motivated to stay sober,
But adulting?
How is it so hard to be my own hero?
If I don't do something about this rage quit demon,
I'll become the villain.
I want to hold a job,
To be a productive civilian.
I want to have that little slice of normalcy,
Of inner peace
And personal intimacy.
