There Are Days When

There are days when I feel overwhelmed by stress Smothered Like a grain of salt Buried in a pile of sand There are days when Writer's block has me In a tight chokehold Squeezing my neck, almost To the point of creative death There are days when I feel the fire of God's love Burning so bright and clear Within me Illuminating my soul There are days when I feel like a masochist Never quite satisfied Or content, until I've suffered To achieve a goal There are days when I groan with displeasure When my alarm clock Goes off early morn On a weekday Pick A Theme Poetry Contest/Winner(6th Place) Sponsored by: Viv Wigley Theme: There are days when Date written and posted: 08/21/2018
