Stress


Take those classes

Sudy hard

Get an "A"

                   Okay I get it.

 

Join those clubs 

Get out there

Socialize

                 Alright I get it!

 

Scholarships

People

Competition

                     I can't do it!

 

Organize

Be perfect

No mistakes

                        I don't want to do this anymore!

That's too bad

This is it

Unless you leave

And never come back

                                  I can come through, if I just persevere

                                   But I might shed a few more tears

                                  Can it lead me to a place

                                 Better than this cluttered space?
