FOCUS

---------------------------------------------------------------

Focus

Focus on writing

Don’t think about it

Not anything.

Focus on writing

Not on the kids

Loudly enjoying themselves in the background

Making you

Bitter.

Focus

Focus on working!
Focus on writing!
Don’t think about them telling you

You’ll never win.

You aren’t good enough.

Someone else is going to get that position.

FOCUS!

FOCUS ON ANYTHING ELSE
ANYTHING BUT OTHER PEOPLE

FOCUS ON SCHOOL

NOT THE ONES

WHO MAKE IT MISERABLE!
FOCUS!

YOU COULD SUCCEED IF YOU JUST TRY

WHY DON’T YOU TRY?

PLEASE JUST TRY!

PICK UP A PEN

DO YOUR WORK

JUST TRY!
THAT’S ALL I WANT IS TO TRY

JUST TO FOCUS

JUST TO PAY ATTENTION.

I just want to pay attention.

I just want to try

I want to do my work and

Have it done.

 

But I won’t.

Because I’m lazy.

Worthless.

Because my life is easy

And I just don’t apply myself

Because I don’t have the tools to apply!
Because I try to keep up

But I get left behind

Because I’m not cut out for this

Because this isn’t what I want

Because I just want to focus!

Life doesn’t need to be easy

Life needs to be manageable.

But it won’t be.

Because I just can’t

Focus.

Focus!

  • Comment from author about the poem: Constructive criticism? This is for an assignment and changing what I wrote isn't really my strong suit. Thanks! :)
