Overtime

Full Screen

I keep on running
out of time
running late
living in overtime
all the while
being run over
until I run out
of runway
that’s when I fly

I guess most of us know what it is to live our lives super busily. This feeling of flat-out running, unable to meeting (mostly our own) expectations. This can become so crazy that you get the sensation of flying that comes with being in flow. Make no mistake, this is the same feeling that comes with mania and loss of sense of reality.

It is a lack of reality if you get so absorbed in what you do, that you can no longer judge what is truly important in life. Trust me I have been there, chasing dragons while I should have been kissing princesses.
