I’m Decompensating

Home exhausted
2 ½ hours till bed
hospital food for dinner
no time for exercise
need to study, need sleep more
Don’t want to do this all over again tomorrow

Depression settles in
A sleepy cat on my chest
purring, “stay in bed,
you’re warm and safe here.
Where no one can yell at you.”
