Sometimes you can't

Sometimes you just can't.

The hardest part is accepting it,

At least for me.

Accepting that you won't be able to

Carry every load

Be every version of yourself

Always be the best

Meet every expectation.

Sometimes

I can't

Be everything.

I hate it

But it's true.

Sometimes

My brain is too fried to transpose,

Or to figure out what E# is when it technically doesn't exist,

Or to hit that final note,

Or to match my brain with my fingers.

Sometimes

I can't do all the homework

Stress

Pain

Drama

Sometimes I have no balance.

It's all work

Or all play.

One thing

At a time.

Sometimes you just can't

And that's okay.

  • Broken

    I let myself cry

    And it felt like my heart was being ripped out of my chest

    Exploding

    Shattering into the sky

    I felt like I was dying

    Each day it gets easier

    But when it catches up to you

  • Replaced memories

    You created memories

    And then got to move on

    Leaving them untouched and perfect

    Mine are being trampled.

    Walked all over by my friends

    My peers

    I can't DO this

    This constant emotional bombardment
