Be present they say
as I #fold memories
into bedsheets
as the past walks
#downstairs beside me
as I nod #nonchalantly
to #whom I am speaking
while I rethread
an old conversation

I'd like to better
#adorn my thinking
maybe #take-off
into the future
but my window is #narrow
& hardwired for sorrow

i don’t want to do this anymore

it’s too hard to blend between worlds

i can’t n we don’t wanna keep playing thinking games

#nonchalantly we ask, “now what?”

🤷‍♀️

#emoetry

#humble, I stand
Before the #vice chancellor
Begging for an extension
Which he #nonchalantly denies
His #icy stare demeaning

An #infinity of time
I #yearn for
But alas, the paper is due
I’ll hand in what I have
And hope for the best

Marry someone who is #emotionallyintelligent
Someone who #fixes the issue instead of acting #nonchalantly
Knows #howtocommunicate
so you both can #expressyourfeelings
Someone who holds a #safespace for you
How they #treatyou is #howtheyfeelaboutyou #believethem
#leadwithpassion
