I quit!
“I quit!” The voice in my head keeps repeating over and over.
I wondered what that meant, as I stood in the break room at work.
Is the job too stressful?
Has my body had enough?
Or is it my mind finding it tough
to make it through?
All of the faking and all of the games.
Constantly taking the blame
For things that I didn’t do.
And all the hurt that people go through.

I do feel a huge energy when you know enough if enough. Like the very thought of another day would kill you. I had a few jobs like that. Some days my job now gets like that. It's one of those things where I put up with a lot because the job works well around my home life.
I try to remind myself my health comes first. Over any job.

The frustration melts through the words. I feel that infuriating ire at the people who have no care but to make life hard.

Dear M,
This poem reflects countless times I recall being in the same position and thought process. Sometimes I did quit and others I slugged my way through. What I thought so relatable was your straight forward approach to stating how it is. So well written.
