Good News

By Christina Joy Turnipseed   

The good news is I’m a flaming boss,
In the middle of an exhilarating struggle!

Bad news is, I get tripped up by my own feet,
Again and again I fall the same way, same time

Good news is, I got creativity like the heaven’s got stars,
I shine, for hours and hours without even a blink!

Then I end up crying, because I can’t find how to freeze,
All the fear in my head, telling me I’ll be defeated by me

I’m like twenty steps up, two steps back
Embracing my future, still anchored to the past
Saturated in love, spending lust too, too fast
I’d like to deny it, but at times, I’m kind of bad

The good news is, I will succeed like I should
Bad news, I’m sitting in a damn trap
