A Life in Balance

By Anonymous

I wake up from another nightmare

The monsters have been my alarm clock

Am I late?

Another assignment, another test, another project

Due at 11:59pm

Ready for the clock to strike midnight

To go to sleep

And wake up from another nightmare

Am I late?

I made it

But, I missed my friend’s birthday again

I didn’t call my aunt before her surgery

I didn’t take time to contemplate my life

I didn’t take time to enjoy

I didn’t take time to sit

I didn’t take time to walk
