In the Blink of an Eye
I worry and then wonder why,
When I’m going away on a trip,
For it ends in the blink of an eye
And that agita adds up to zip.
Yet you can’t really change who you are –
If you’re nervous right down to your core,
Then wherever you go, near or far,
You’ll be anxious, at times less or more.
I just wish, since I know time does fly,
That’s a lesson I could take to heart,
But to think of the blink of an eye
Is a very good place I can start.
