Drained, tired, exhausted,
My piece of mind accosted.
Shattered by the days events and more.
Weak, spent, and weary,
I find my outlook dreary
As piles of life grow too tall to ignore.
Humiliated and humbled,
Nervously I stumbled
Not knowing what next I had in store.
Now I stand and wait,
Trying desperately to abate
My heart from writing this stoccato score.
But then, a sudden conclusion
Comes much to my confusion.
My problems stay behind my bedroom door.
I’ll finally get some rest
Against the world’s behest.
A peaceful sleep is what I’m hoping for.
Maybe tomorrow will more kind.
Maybe i’ll be in less of a bind.
I wont know until I wake, that’s for sure.

At Work
Thoughts come in so fast
Readily, I grab at them
They slip through my hand
Because time stops for no man
Especially here at work.
No time for the things.
Things I need more time to do.
Things that I love most.
Can’t do what I want to do
Especially here at work.
When I stop for breath
Only a moment’s respite
And then I’m pulled back
There is no time for a break
Especially here at work
I give up and wait
For the day to be over
For the time to go
I do not want to stay here
Especially here at work

(Sorry for not posting all of last week. Work was, and still is, extremely busy. Hopefully it will slow down soon. Thanks for reading.)
Busy day at work,
and not a moment to spare
in one’s fleeting life.
