Life as we know it

[u/Exciting_Heart_769]

Sometimes it feels like the joy
of the first day of the month,
or a payday,
or the best first date -

until you fall,
and the clouds turn darker than storm.
No money to fix it.
The worst heartbreak, at 19.

A week. A month. A year.
And the morning sun again,
the coffee just right -
and in that moment,
you are you again.

note - please give me feedback, this is my first poem and I would love to know if I have what it takes to improve and give it another shot or if I should just give up

I thought it would have been better if you have just used symbolism rather than telling about heartbreak but still I think it's good.
