Practice like you are the worst. Play like you are the best.


I sit and listen,
To the tick of clocks,
To the click of pens,
And to the silent hum of boredom…

I sit and watch the clock,
Ever so slowly,
Ticking by,
My life fading before me,
But after all,
Today is just another day…

I liked this, but it was pretty short. I'd love to hear more.
