Stress


Stress is a tiny little word

The thing it describes is of much greater mass

It will be here in the future and was in the past

It will always last

Never gone

I wait for it to go

But it still wants to be star of the show

No matter what i do

Or how i act

It will always come back

I try to talk it out

But in the end i scream and shout
