To the Rhythm

# poem
Beat. Beat. Beat.
I’m tired. I’m exhausted.
My chest tightens. And I let my mind wander for far too long.
It hurts. And I hate it. I think about the time I waste, the good I squander
and yet
none of it moves me.
So I sit. And I wait.
And I watch in silent agony as it all evaporates in front of me.
Beat. Beat. Beat.
I am my biggest enemy.
