Poem on myself

By JULIAUNNA HAUENSTEIN

I wake up and just lay here

I question everything

I thought I was ready to be on my own 

I thought I’d make it 

I wake up and fake it

I know I don’t have a job 

I don’t make money 

I don’t even look forward to days that are sunny  

If only my friends knew

If only they knew the struggle

If only they knew i felt I was in trouble

I lay awake all night buried in my sorrow

Questioning if there’s gonna be a tomorrow 

At times wanting to feel erased 

I just can’t help but feel incredibly misplaced

There’s nothing left 

My friends will never know the feeling 

The feeling of sadness and regret 

I have let myself go to waste 

I need to be replaced

I am my own monster.
