Momentary Relief: A worrier’s poem

 

You just sit there, waiting.
Waiting… Waiting.
Why is this happening to me? you ask.
Your gaze directed up.

Am I stressed?
Depressed?
Something definitely feels oppressed…
Inside me.


Thought I’ll be in and out in a flash.
But alas!
Still sitting here,
Longing for a splash.

Groaning and moaning,
Your eyes are turning red.
You curse...
And then: KLOPS!


Yes,
you may smile for a while...
But then you pray
you haven't popped a pile.
