"Life finds a way."


A loan.


I’m borrowing back my time and soul, because

Frankly I can’t trust you with it.


Maybe I just need some time alone.

Will that help?


My pores ooze out personality and soul,

the vices of companionship and family

squeezing me dry.


Society’s an haywire elevator,

And its grip on where and how I am is

unshakeable.


People are the problem,

but they are also the ones who can 


Lift

Me

Back

Up


With my purpose being to give,

I’m borrowing from stores that I don’t have.


I wonder what my emotional credit score is?
