Round and Round… #Poetry

When your mind is running round, and round

And an answer, a solution can’t be found

Wanting to smash your head on the ground

Progressing toward a nervous breakdown

 

Instinctively you will claw and scratch

Trying to slow a breath you can’t catch

Much like an itch you cannot scratch

While wishing for an open escape hatch

 

Stay in control don’t lose your head

Don’t let these feelings push you to dread

Just breathe in slow take a look ahead

To the sunset lined clouds glowing cherry red

 

Today will be over, tomorrow’s a new day

And it sure wouldn’t hurt to kneel and pray

To ask for help -to take the feelings away

And before you know it –everything’s okay
