broken crutch

Affirmation on the wall
“You Got This”
three words
fix it all.

Some days it does
some days, not much
this week a worthless,
broken crutch.

when mind can’t over matter rise
what else to do with inner cries?

try to ignore – will never work
open mouth – sound like a jerk

push ahead
push ahead
wander like the living dead

all these options – what’s the right one?
I try to pick – it’s not much fun.

One response to “broken crutch”

  1. Yes, affirmations can help, but sometimes, they ring hollow despite the best of intentions. Good luck with pushing ahead, hopefully not like the living dead for too long.
