Procasination

Procrastination has had a grip on my mind for years.

It grips onto my mind with a tight firm, 

Withholding me from living outside of it.

Friends tell me it’s because I need to stop leaving things unfinished,

But maybe that’s what I desire.

I procrastinate on doing my homework, 

I procrastinate on being creative,

I procrastinate on sleeping,

I procrastinate on moving on, 

I procrastinate on leaving people behind, 

I procrastinate on letting go of situations.

Suddenly it’s called an anxious attachment style.

Maybe our chapter has a “to be continued.”

I can come back to you if I keep it unfinished, right?

I know procrastination has no hold on you.

You’re eager to read different chapters,

Determined to flip to the next page.

I’m still stuck on ours, 

Reading the same page,

Procrastinating on letting go of ours.
