A Worrisome Feeling

A feeling That follows you Through your Whole day A small feeling Of dread A bit of Anxiety A smidgen of Sadness It warns you Of what is To come, Though you Already know it Is going to Commence You feel the Weight of Your body As you trudge Through your Daily routine You try not To think about The future, But that Feeling just Won’t go Away You tell it To stop, to End your Misery, but It does not Leave The feeling Grows over Time, making You feel all Of its suspense You start to Break a little At the seams, But you hold It together Because the Worst has not Come yet You finally Arrive at the Foreseen event And the feeling Is kicking into Overdrive You nervously Get to where You need to Be, but your Hand starts To shake You grab it And hold it To make it Stop, so you Don’t look weak “You are strong” You saqy, even If the feeling Makes you doubt it You walk Confidently Towards the One you are To meet Afterwards, You look Like you were Beaten raw You are sad, But will not Let it out You were rejected And kicked out Of the room, And now the Feeling plagues Your mind again It has grown Into a monster That won’t let Go, but you Are snapped out Of it as Soon as you Are called in For your interview Written on March 6, 2020
