Daily Struggle
What should I do today?/
I could be productive, or give myself a much needed break/
The latter would be much needed, but I fear I would curse myself tomorrow/
So if I decided to be productive, in which way shall it be?/
I could focus my time on work, which would result in monetary gain/
Money is nice, but to be honest, a very small concern/
What if I focused more on being creative?/
I could write a song, or paint a picture/
That would satisfy my soul/
But what if the inspiration does not arrive?/
It could result in a day wasted/
Again, I would curse myself tomorrow/
Taking care of my health is always a positive choice/
I could start with some yoga, followed by a balanced breakfast/
Later on, I could suit up and catch some waves/
But what if the wind levels are high, and the swell is absent?/
I could pack my runners and be ready for a run/
But my legs are sore, and it’s beginning to rain/
Why do I constantly come up with excuses?/
The resistance always finds a way into my space/
How do I lock that door forever?/
The morning struggle never seems to leave/
My determination and drive is what varies/
Will my mind overcome the submission of my body?/
Will I conquer the internal struggle and march forward?/
It’s already 10 o’clock/
Before I know it, it will be noon/
I’ll start with a cup of coffee/
And listen to some tunes/
Soon I’ll get pep in my step/
And get going about my day/
I’ll be on a roll and look outside/
As the sunlight fades away/
Another day conquered/
Another day gone/
Tomorrow I shall wake/
To a breaking dawn/
Will resistance beat me?/
Time will tell
