Almost I didn't make it The internet was slow again My email tab wouldn't load I missed my lunch break and I couldn't send out the email to reschedule A very disturbed man was screaming at me to find his package without a tracking number He ended the call by calling me a cunt My ears were ringing after that And this fluffy white halo crept into my peripheral vision When I stood up I felt dizzy I couldn't really see I staggered over to my supervisor and when I spoke to ask for an unscheduled break I just started sobbing He reacted like he'd seen it a hundred times He told me to go to the bathroom Good thing too because I threw up a couple of times I'm annoyed I was a day shy of finishing a month That was my personal challenge But I'm proud, I'm still proud I can talk now, I can drive long distances I'm not a shaking chihuahua anymore My coworkers cried, there were lots of hugs My brother took me out to get fancy coffee Almond milk, decaf something It was an Emirati brand So coffee doesn't have to be painful? "Decaf isn't real coffee" I love fake coffee And Maru chan's noodles with special chili oil Watching shows Eating and peeing without staring at a clock Sleeping early and waking up early I missed my friends After seeing so many people lose their lives, their world in an instant It was very hard to stay motivated I wanted to hug everyone I care about I was really sad about missing Tante Z's calls because I'd be asleep in the morning I'm glad it's over |
