Bills pile up high,
Dreams suffocate beneath them
Debt collectors' love.
Love at first sight
Until you met my mother,
Now you just take flight.
Life’s just a sitcom,
Where I’m the awkward extra,
Dying in background.
Morning coffee’s life,
Spilled on your brand-new white shirt,
Life’s cruel joke’s delight.
Your dreams are so grand,
Right until alarm clock screams,
Back to the nine to five.
Hope shines like a star,
Then crashes like your WiFi,
In the midst of work.
Friends come and then go,
Like WiFi in a tunnel,
Trust the connection.
Sun sets on this day,
Like your plans for world travel
Canceled by budget.
Success on LinkedIn,
Reality’s cruel mirror
Unpaid intern’s life.
Death comes for us all,
But taxes come much sooner,
Life’s grand irony.
