No Motivation
In the depths of my mind, a fire burned
But now it’s extinguished, no longer concerned
My drive, once fierce, is now a whisper in the wind
Like a wilted flower, my motivation has thinned
My dreams, once soaring high, are now grounded and still
Like a bird with broken wings, unable to fulfill
Motivation, a distant memory, lost in the haze
Like a forgotten melody, fading with the days
Life’s colors have faded, like a painting gone gray
No inspiration to guide me, no spark to light my way
I’m stuck in this depressive low
And if I’ll get out, I’ll never know
I’m a puzzle missing pieces, incomplete, and unsure
I’m like a book with no ending, my motivation is obscure
I am bent and broken
My mind filled with the things I want to say, now unspoken
Maybe one day I’ll find some way out
Of all this cloud filling my mind with doubt
I’ll rise from the ashes and be on top
I’ll keep trying, and I won’t ever stop
