I was sick of it
now I’m done with it
tired of the rush, rush, rush
I’ve given enough
to people who are lazy fucks
outrageous expectations
working 7 days a week
they act like I’m a machine
one that doesn’t get weak
and tired, frustrated, angry
asking me what’s wrong
the fuck?
are you my therapist now?
just leave me the fuck alone
then maybe I’ll get something done
I have no time for love
I just want to be home
with my wife and pets
hugging them tightly
but I need a paycheck
I didn’t mind the job at first
but God damn, hire another person
the money’s good
until I lose my mind
money means nothing
if I end up in a hospital
over dramatic? maybe
I’m just sick of the same faces
everyone’s cool
they’re just not the ones I want to see
why do I feel no one understands?
or fucking cares
I have no time for love
I want to work on my hobbies
write some half way decent poetry
do some fucking reading
truth is I’m always sore
and fucking exhausted
can’t keep track of a conversation
neglecting my wife
and being short tempered
so what are the answers?
there is none
it’s almost Christmas
and I’m here wishing I was dead
I wasn’t all that stable before
wish I could go to work
build a wall around my workstation
yet I have this dickhead boss
wants to act like my bff
while making snide remarks
“is that the best you can do?”
yeah bitch, which is better than you
I have no time for love








This is fucking great! Love it. Can totally relate.
Powerfully penned, Nick. Honest fucking write my friend. Appreciate you.

I’m conflicted, I don’t know whether to feel happy or sad that I can relate. Great ink, Nick.
