These Days

My first take on this.

You know what I feel like doing now, at this very moment.

When nothing makes sense to me.

Not even as I type these words away.

There are days when I dont have dreams to dream

When I feel not to look out for better career avenues

That urge to learn something new also doesnt excite me

When neither Netflix can change the disturbance I feel

Theres a storm heading towards a hurricane that might destroy

everything that comes in contact

Its okay to feel the pain, the hurt and the lonliness

I tell myself this and calmly let it go

The lingering feeling still inside me

Looking outside at the dull yet uplifting weather

The chill due to the cold rain

Somehow takes me back to my childhood

Back to when being happy and content were just the way you felt.

Those precious memories save me.

Here you’ve done a great job of expressing yourself with uninhibited honesty. I love the way you use vivid examples & imagery to SHOW instead of tell (first rule of good writing). You have got raw talent for writing & observing your feelings & your life, as this poem does not look to be overly crafted with care. It feels like a natural conversation & what you’re saying is clear & relatable (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

This is a very fancy poem. It's a fact that nothing is permanent except change. We live in today's world but can always cherish the nostalgic moments we own for eternity!
