The Bubble
- What happens when it bursts?
I was feeling quite down about being surrounded by far more intelligent people at work and wondering how long I could keep going.


I feel that sometime soon the bubble will burst.
And my whole life will be found out for what it is.
Having been in the right place at the right time.
Having worked with the right people on the right job.
Coasting not soaring, static not improving.

It can only last so long, and it's going to end soon.
It will be a relief to be out from under the looming rock.
I will breathe easier at not having to live the lie.
But what will happen, I don't know, or what will change.
I'm not sure what I will do, when the bubble bursts.
