I want time to become me.
I have obligations,
That I carry out
Because they are the
Right thing to do.
I have duties,
That I fulfill
Because I feel
Responsible for my debts,
Responsible for my needs.
Responsible for what I want,
For myself and others.
And this does not leave me time,
To breath,
To rattle around in my world and wonder,
What do I want to do
When I have nothing to do?
I am over booked.
I am unable to relax.
I am failing to be me.
I do not have the time or energy
To explore me,
To look to my imagination and wonder,
What if….
It is just, next, next, next……
I’m sorry I didn't get that done,
Next, next, next……
There is no time to explore.
There is no time to fail.
There is no time to imagine,
There is no time to dream,
There is no time to find me.
There is no time to work on what I could be.
