I am feeling lonely today. I have work to do, but I want to talk to someone. It is hard in the middle of the night. I used to love being alone. Now I want to interact with people. I haven't set up my life to have many interactions outside of work. I'm not working right now, so that really limits the conversation pool. Actually, I dread going back to work. It causes so much stress and anxiety its hard to function. Catch 22 here. Anyway my choices are lonely or overworked, anxiety, and deadline driven. I still think its this new medication making me want to talk or maybe I am still in manic mode and don't know it.

Quietly Muse

silent in the room i sit
the clock goes tick tick tick
my cat sleeps by my side
birds chirp and then I sigh

What an unusual way to be
Alone with just me
Engrossed in my deep thoughts
A random phrase keeps getting caught

Get up, get up, get up
there's work to be done, get up
beds to be made, a house to be cleaned
Lost items to find, food to be gleaned

Alas one leg moves and the other refused
Why do we all need to agree.
Sit a while longer and have some tea
Time for sitting is done
Look outside! There's the sun.
