One day I shall find a few hours in my day
Uninterrupted, unscheduled, waiting to be whittled away
When I discover those hours, I shall hold them tight
In my grasp, I shall utilize them right
And sit down to collate all my thoughts
That I want to express, but have not
Been able to because of a lamentable lack
Of solitary time- time that I wand to wrestle back
From my life spent hustling towards an uncertain goal
Time that has been lost in a black hole..
*
One day I would find the words that best describe
My desires and fears, life’s lessons I have imbibed
One day the act of writing would not feel rushed
One day in the near future I would not feel crushed
Under the weight of an infinite number of tasks to complete
One day I would be accomplish the rare feat
Of writing in exact words what I have wanted to say
Without any distractions to pull me away…

Did you send me an email to read you on Substack? Too many bloggers here on WP have been hacked so I did not want to open the email if it wasn’t from you. God knows I have enough trouble trying to write/edit a post here. Thanks. Just checking.

I just created a Substack account, I am not sure if it sent out emails to my followers when I added the blog there. Still trying to navigate substack

No, you did not send out an email. I read my email wrong. Then when I commented on your post, I saw “NEXT” and realized my error.
