[hometext] => turning your life around will kill you via stress...my goodness I'm so exhausted
[bodytext] => I can't believe that it's happening I just never thought I'd make it this far Working hard, doing my best at everything I'm exhausted, but my progress shows My grades are high, my additude is good, my bank account has money All is well But I still feel like I'm tettering on the edge My body's tired, sore, my mind is weary I ache and I long for bed more than I should I can't remember the last time I hung out with my friends Is this what success is? Is this all worth it? I'm sad, still, and stressed out I found grey hairs and I'm not even 18 Success? What is success? I can't imagine this all being worth it Sure I'll get scholarships and sure I'll get a better job But at this rate my body will waste away before I can think of retirement I've lost time for my passions My hobbies lay forgotten The closest I come to writing my stories Are 'reading' them in my head while working Come time to sleep my back aches and burns I get to the point where I can't move Truely, honestly, I am paralyzed by bedtime Physical pain preventing any movement My brain fuzzy with thousands of thoughts I'm exhausted Worn out beyond belief I can't believe that I've made it this far I can't believe I'm still doing well On top of everything, but buried under everything I have been successfully stressed No way will I turn back And travel down the road of 'who cares' I can't. I just can't go back. It may kill me And I may be close to breaking in half But I'm so close To what I don't know The pressure building I'm breaking Successfully, I'm stressed [comments] => 2 [counter] => 196 [topic] => 21 [informant] => desolantdreamer [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
