Can't

by Isabel - Not entered

I can't do this anymore
It's pissing me off
My attention span has shrunken
My focus has diminished to nothing
It's hard
And for once in my life
I can't do it
I can't tackle this hurdle
My feet won't pick up
My brain won't run
My body won't soar
I have fallen flat on my face
Never to be picked up again
Just kicked over
Booted in the face by a spiked cleat
It doesn't hurt anymore
Yet still. . .
I just can't do it
I just can't do it anymore
Not anymore
