I'M Sorry
I’m sorry,
That I sound like I’ve been put to mute.
I’m sorry,
That I was speaking first.
I’m sorry,
That I added to the conservation
only to be left out with no feedback.
I’m “Fine”
I’ll just listen as you talk about
My favorite things
It’s “Okay”
I’m used to feeling see-through
I’m just “Tired”
At the fire, the feeling of burning words stuck in my

Very Stressful Times
These are very stressful times
with the high cost of living these days
It's difficult to understand
how people with a low income can survive
It's beyond my comprehension
they need assistance from somewhere
A rich uncle good investing at an early age
winning the lottery maybe all of the above
Yes these are very stressful times

Stressful Journey
Poet's journey, start to end-
filled with some stress to attend.
Captive once it has begun-
till a poem is all done.
When the poem is complete,
the road traveled becomes sweet-
knowing the goal has been met!
Stressful journey- soon forget!

Sleep Thief
Once again, sleep evades me
Weary and worried, I lie awake
Struggling to quiet my anxious mind
The relentless 'why's' and 'what if's'
And the self-deprecating thoughts stealing my slumber
A complicated dilemma and a tough choice
An outcome and a consequence
Does my head know best?
Why does my heart feel otherwise?
Not sure the odds are in my favour
I continue to toss

I Sigh
I sigh when I say good morning
And I’m stuck listening to the
Negativity and problems of
Someone else's day
I sigh when my computer
Runs slow or the internet crashes
That puts me behind
In my work
I sigh at how the
Cost of living is rising quickly
Without any remorse for
The elderly
I sigh at how the
Minimum wage is
So low that the

Stressful Students
You study hard, to get good grads
and with all that stress, you have made the grade
When you have finished, you bring out a sigh
and then you plan, to party with the clan
With all those drinks, you’ll get rid of stress
but when you wake, you’ll feel so fake

Life Is Messful and So Stressful
So much lying, lots of cheating
Why is everybody scheming
To be dishonest and mean
Why can't people just come clean
And admit when they are wrong
Its not weak, it makes you strong
To be human and at fault
So there's no need to assault
And be sneaky or unfair
It's so simple, really clear
No one's perfect like a god
Life is treacherous and

Stressful Days
Stressful days are here again
We built them up so tall
Not knowing they'd bring our fall
Stressful days
Stressful days
There's no end in sight
Stressful days are here again
To bring me pain
That cuts right through the vein
Stressful days
Stressful days
There's no end in sight
Stressful days are here again
I don't know if I can make it
Without losing my wits
Stressful days
Stressful days
There's

Modern Life Is Stressful
Modern life is stressful they say
Nothings right or wrong, everything gray
So before you start your day
Get on your knees before God and pray
And as you drive to your daily task
Keep talking to God and wisdom ask
And keep talking to Him from dawn to dusk
Tell Him everything dont be brasque
Rejoice evermore the bible says
Pray pray without

Stressful Days
Nothin's goin right,
Im so stressed out;
My insides are in turmoil
I think the butterflies are drunk.
I have to manualy relax my jaws
And unpurse my lips
And when I do,
Its almost painful.
Theres a throbbing behind my eyes
And when I close my eyes
For more than a blink
I have to pry them back open.
Even thinking is hard
Cuz the commanding
