This is something I just wrote real quickly a few months ago. Interestingly it still rings true now.Frustration
Paralyzed
Stuck
Unlearning
Stepping backwards
Never far enough away
One thing at a time...
I tell myself
Can i do this?
was i cut out for academia?
I want tears
I want scars
tell my story
so afraid of failing
I set out on that path anyway
I am my biggest judge, critic, determiner
If i could move, I'd be a bird
fly away, to see the smallness of it all
I'd fly to a safe haven and stay until the storm was over
i'm falling fast
Where do i belong?
can i have answers instead of questions?

I think you may look back on college as many of us do and think (Bob Dylan lyric comes to mind)

I'm younger than that now."
