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! :)
