Rest

The pressere of it all
Is killing me deep within
Wanting to relax but not allowed
Wants to just stop but I can't

What I would give to trade my life
Just for one day and then it be back to normal
So how about it?
Wanna trade???

Fun poem. I do understand wanting a break from your own life. I feel that way now. Makes you wonder how would you handle the adversities of someone else's life. Hmmm... I love this poem and I think I would trade for a day. If nothing more, you will be able to appreciation your life or theirs. Thanks for your comment on "Blame Me." I enjoyed this piece. ~Des Juan
