It’s this sick cycle

Get paid, pay everything that needs to be paid

Spend the rest on something to just cheer me up please

Eat something other than microwave dinners

God I hate microwave dinners

But I can no longer cook

But that’s a different subject

Spend everything I have and see that I am two days past my pay cheque and I have nothing

Maybe someone helps me

Maybe this is one of those weeks where I didn’t even have enough for everything that needs to be paid and help is not enough

It’s not enough

At least I can afford shelter,

Even if it means I can’t afford food

But I spend the next two weeks unable to meet my needs,

And the money I had left is never enough to help anyways so what’s the point?

People think I should be able to make my situation better but I am trapped

And I don’t know what to do anymore

It’s those last two days before I have probably enough to pay off everything.

I’m so sick of this cycle.
