I have so many tabs open in my brain
Its hard to focus on one at a time
I try and I try and I try
But I keep getting distracted
Or not fully understanding what I’m doing
Making it even harder to get shit done
I know the work is piling up
And it will only get worse the longer I wait
But I can’t focus
I just don’t understand
My brain wants to just die
I hate that I’m putting this off
But when I try, I don’t comprehend anything
Hours wasted
I don’t have time for this
I need to just focus and get everything done
But it’s like something is blocking me
I want to scream
Nothing is working and it makes me angry
I want to punch something
Or cry
Or maybe both
Yeah, definitely both

Everyone feels like puching something. Sometimes I feel like punching someone, but tgat has consequences, too. So keep on writing to get rid of the negative energy.

Hi Marina. Your poem holds a genuine emotion and voice, which resonates. I like the contemporary metaphor of many tabs open. Dig deep, throw your heart open. Framing your experiences can help you feel less overwhelmed. Please feel free to message if you'd like. It's always nice to talk with you.
