Burning the candle at both ends
Why do I do this to myself?
I jump with joy saying hell yes!
The dates miraculously align
But doubt comes as exhaustion follows
I enjoy designing my life
Around things that I love to do
But what about rest?
That is needed too.
Burning the candle at both ends
Will inevitably burn you.
