unapparently so

days have been long and filled

without time to notice the breathing

days where forks balance on plate edges

and make-up smudges in eye corners

nights when dreams and sleep are half-weighted

while the wastebasket overflows with tasks

days like these and i remember how

the onset of summer used to mean respite

and i feel like a real grownup because there

really isn't summer anymore
