Your Room
A Poem by Nick Pasta
You can get a lot done
right here in your room.
You can talk to your friends
through Discord or Zoom.
And if you get hungry there's no need to leave
just log onto DoorDash and eat what you please.
"Umm… what about money?"
You say with a smirk.
Well, that’s easy to do
just find remote work.
“That must be wonderful
it sounds like a dream!”
staying in your room is not all it might seem.
There will come a day on Discord or Zoom
when none of your friends will be in their room.
The Dashers you’ll need when you want to eat
will all be at home, not out on the street.
And just one more hour of working alone
hurts you to the core, right down to the bone.
Cause, when that day comes, and it will come quite soon.
You’ll wish you’d not spent so much time in your room.
Hi all!
Was feeling a little lonely yesterday and so I used that as inspiration for this poem. If anybody knows someone who does illustrations I’d love to get in contact with them to make a cover for this poem.
Thanks again to anyone who reads this. I hope it makes your day a little bit brighter!
