Life is an annoyance of cognition Certainly can't understand it anymore The circuit is tense Examining the heart Gradually collapses Can't you turn on the switch? My skin slips It starts to itch Fear resonates Like a train Trying to stick together Run together Not indecisive Break up Make up for yourself Written: October 27, 2022

Life goes on despite the annoyances--good advice in the ending.

At times we are in great confusion and annoyance. Dear friend, I add to my vocabulary, learning new words from you . Niggles is a new word I learnt from you now . Thanks a lot....

Seems it takes the "break up" to get to the "make up for yourself" Love this. Thank you!
