Making a Living

Making a Living 

Where does the time go?
I blinked
And it was gone
One day 
Bleeding into the next
And what once was mine
Now belongs to somebody else
I fill it with their expectations
And I do it so well
I come home exhausted
And waste mine
Doing nothing
Quiet mornings
Weave into busy days
That turn into tired nights
A sleepy Cinderella
Who turns into a pumpkin
By 9pm
Day in
Day out
Doing more for others
Than I do for myself
I'm making a living
But it doesn't quite feel 
Like a life

    1. I really think the work week needs to be shorter because two day weekends are not long enough.
