self-sabotage

self-sabotage

A Poem by elani
"

justification

"
The eternally unavailable.
self-sabotage.

i’m tired of sabotaging my chances of happiness.
but i think i need to ask what happiness is to me �" right now.
right now, nothing seems more important than learning.
learning how to live in this world,
just being in my twenties.

i’m stuck in myself.
but i’m looking to others to fill gaps.
to entertain, to distract, to “love.”

i’m not ready for the real thing.
i’m simply 22 and taking my time.
absorbing what it is to be in my twenties.
in my gut, i always know what is wrong and what is right for me.

therefore, self-sabotage is the truest i can be to myself.
