My grooves are dirty

Been a minute, eh?

I have been busy, very busy.

Living every day. Trying to open my eyes and wishing they stay open for the next 14 hours roughly...

And they do, they just get moist more often than I'd like.

Nothing serious, I just stare at screens a lot.

My soul too, because of the screens.

Life is tough, like really tough if you go about your business like nothing is different,

Because it changes, every six months.

Like the options on a dating app.

But the struggle doesn't change, much like the same apps.

I haven't cut my nails, they're dirty but not filthy enough.

Much like my grooves, they're collecting dust every day.

Dust / dead skin, dry tears, makeup residue, cookie crumbs - chocolate of course.

And they're becoming stubborn every day that I don't clean them, solidifying with the cold.

I frequent more coffee shops than I used to.

It's reached a point where the pumpkin spice is making me bitter.

Stopping now, or just letting the whipped cream cut it out... see if you notice.
