Not Yesterday

March 20, 2026

Written by:

Today is a rough one.
I’m feeling high and low,
while shaking and cold.

Today is a rough one.
I couldn’t hack it at my job.
My stomach churned
and I felt mentally burned.
I couldn’t keep it up, anymore.

Today is a rough one.
I write as if it has already passed
but here I am,
sitting and writing
as if this piece will be my last.

Today is a rough one.
I’m afraid to show my face,
afraid to talk, to try.

Today is a rough one
but at least I’m alive.

I hope you feel better in the coming days. But even if it does not right away, your kind of honesty is already a step toward getting through it.
