Windows sigh during long storms.

Raindrops tap out little love notes.

Phones freeze during high drama.

Candles pout when blown out too soon.

I cancel plans before they even happen

I blink hard to reset awkward moments.

I fake focus while my brain watches cartoons.

I reply “cool” while my brain screams “why?!”

I blink slowly and call it meditation.

Mentally on airplane mode

I tried to be a morning person. Worst decision ever.

I fake confidence by walking slightly faster.

I procrastinate sleep with future regrets.

I make playlists for emotions I’ve never met.

I’m not lazy — I just prioritize rest poorly.

I dream of vacations where I nap all day.

I ghost myself sometimes.

I overthink brunch plans like war strategies.

I rotate three emotions: tired, funny, and done.

I compliment strangers in my head only.
