Being Under Lifes Pressure
07-06-2023
I can’t catch
Up with people who are always on the move
I watch
Them pass me by though I don’t approve
The gap I see between us I accelerate
But still I lag behind
At a rate which makes me late
I try to ignore what’s on my mind
And my pace
But being human and seeing what I see along the way
I can’t face
Being in the same position each day
Of my life even when I change gears
I know the road ahead is full of potholes and it’s narrow
Whatever I do nothing clears
Up and this forces me to be afraid of tomorrow
Like anyone who likes finer things in life
I just want what’s rightfully mine by the time I thrive
