Workaholics anonymous
August 15, 2021
I have worn exhaustion with my eyes,
worked overtime
everyday
I have missed parties, dinners, and my father's birthday
because living like a workaholic
might make me one
yet I feel that I have not done enough
that others are working harder,
moving farther
and I am staying back
That I have spent too many years of my life "doing what makes me happy" and not enough on playing it smart
That in the end I will not make it
because my work log can never equate my ambition
