Adulting, one of life’s biggest scams.

overwhelmed with all the responsibilities.

When i think of all the things i need to do

i get overwhelmed

and instead of sitting down to just start doing those things

i run away

and do nothing

or do something else to make me stop thinking

because thinking is exhausting

and i’m tired

and i just want a little peace and quiet in my head

because my head is so noisy, so crowded

you wouldn’t last a day in here, i promise

but i can’t run away forever

eventually i need to work through the thoughts in my head

and organise and plan all i need to do

and do them slowly,

one by one

till eventually i finish doing all that i need to do

and then i can finally rest

or can I?

and then suddenly, there’s something to do

and then more things come up

and then the cycle repeats itself

being an adult human being is exhausting please.
