I have been watching
the rise of gold price,
silver prices as well.
A rise always as seen
with no dips, keep me
worried.
I have been following
the markets for long,
cautious I go about.
Intra day transactions
make my heart race,
one minute it is high
the next second it dips,
eyes glued to the computer
I buy and sell the whole day.
feverish I turn, decide to
put trading away for a day,
That be not the case,
the next day I am into it
transformed into an addict,
if I miss a day, I pine
being so tempting and rewarding.
the alibi cut short my socializing,
robbed me of other interests,
to get away, I went off the grid
stayed for a while, contemplating
on how to recover.
I came out off it partially,
still do with restricted time
and confined funds.
