A Hectic Morning
she gets scratched by an orange and white cat
and the bus is running fifteen minutes late
she takes a quick drink of almond milk
and grabs a blueberry muffin for the way
walking further down the cemented road
she tries to grab a cheap cab instead
she’s sweating from morning’s stress
and wishes she had stayed in her comfy bed
soon, the bus arrives, and she takes
a seat in the stinky back
behind a long-haired man, playing his guitar
and an annoying younger couple to her left
she tries not to stare as the couple make
enormous hickeys on each other’s necks
she’s grossed out but quickly blocks it out
because it’s finally time to get off
now into work, she goes, and it becomes
another disaster in the making
until the next morning
she wakes up earlier
and expects a new outcome
she’s changed her perspective
and now want to live it out
no more complaining
and being compelled
to do anything risky
just to entertain herself
she needs to make changes now
because life goes by fast
and she might not have more time
she needs to figure things out
and stop living life as if she were blind
she gets down to the bottom of the source of her pain
lays herself on her bed as she tries to blot out her shame
and contemplates a new way to face the day
she holds these secrets in her heart
and saves them for the next time
and there will be a next time…

Sometimes I wonder how people can go to their full-time jobs daily. When I was in the rat race, I felt sick from anxiety every day and being around my co-workers and bosses felt like daily torture.
I am happy to be safe at home, writing, and leaving the world’s chaos behind.
~Thanks for reading! Until next time, stay safe, and be blessed!~ 🙂
