Poetry Prompt Nine: 5 minute write

A day not working out

Could spell addiction, are you addicted? An addict? Such negative connotations…

Thinking over all the articles I’ve read,

things running through my head,

most of the content of fat comes pouring out of our mouths????

Break up the fat cell and huff and puff, like the Big Bad Wolf and it all makes you a slimmer, trimmer version of yourself. But do you truly change?

Could you lose the bad memories with it as well?

Like if you were stronger, could you have made a change for the past?

Dwelling hardcore over a decision you had already decided to let go of?

Are you pushing yourself hard to try to push out of a mindset?

Is there a place in time for you to eventually stop thinking about it and let it go to the universe?

You may feel stupid but should you then hold on forever?

We’ve seen what holding on does.

It breaks people into an unrecognisable version of themselves. Dark and lost and broken. Can you ever come back fully from tragedy? Is there coming back or is there only carrying it forward, lost in the hopes of being carefree and forgetting for longer than a minute that this world is unjust, cruel and heart breaking.
