I was kind of excited for the new year, happily I awaited the hours counting them down to the end of 2022. Then all the shit hit me when waking up today. The cost of living is rising and these were my thoughts:
I close my eyes and let go
Of all the dreams inside my soul
No time for dreams
Say good bye one by one
Let them go till the time comes
When survival isn’t the
only game to play.
Got to get ready for a new dawn
Put ones nose to the grind stone
Not much time for much else
Got to make it through another day.
Going to have to take it
one day at a time now
Can’t plan so far ahead
have to take it just day by day.
I wanted to travel to far off places
looks like everything’s on hold again
so I’ll put it aside again and
hope to be able to pick it up some day.
