I'm a Failure

Say It Plainly Challenge

I'm a Failure

I am a failure.

With absolutely everything I do.

Stories left unwritten, books left unread.

I am 33 years old and have no idea how to make a proper beef stew.

No matter how much I preach, I never go to bed!

I am a failure.

***

I am a failure.

Anxious about everything, but does nothing to fix it.

Scared of the unknown, yet welcoming the change.

I keep screaming at my husband in an angry fit.

I think the use of AI is strange.

I am a failure.

***

I am a failure.

The dishes are always dirty, but I will not clean.

Laundry is piling up, but I do not care.

Everyone flinches whenever I lose it, claiming I am mean.

I am stressed out beyond compare.

I am a failure

***

Thank you for listening!
