"It Keeps Me Going" by Melanie Albanese



"It Keeps Me Going" By Melanie Albanese
As I am seated on my bed,
I start to sprint in a race in my head.
Unpleasant thoughts rush over me like ocean waves,
wondering whether not my existence is what others crave.

But suddenly my brain turns to soft, putty-like, mesh,
when i think of my goals of future glory and success.
My heart starts to beat at 1 million miles per hour,
like a sweaty racer that desperately needs a 36 day shower.

This feeling of excitement keeps my brain afloat,
and it shields me from my inner cold like a new winter coat.
My hopes and ambitions are as valid as can be,
and they come very easily, without a fee.
