the worries that keep us up all night
the fear that I may just lose it lose it
work projects 1 2
kids 1 2 3
others others
I'm swirling in a sea of sadness
spiraling out of control
such hyperbole
but when we feel extreme feelings
we need extreme words
I need to breathe
in and out
take that walk
not take myself so seriously
be strong for others and for myself
don't lash out at the easiest target
nor on myself
but the tension it gets too tight
high strung
ready to snap
is my everyday look
not outside but in
outside I'm cool kitten
tired is all they say I seem
but I'm cracking inside
and it may well show
for now I joke and kid and fool around
as I should
