That time comes around
when you feel really down.
You're tossing and turning;
You long for solid ground.

Pounding heart, lump in throat
Is this the definition of growth?
You find it hard to experience joy;
maybe you're in the wrong boat.

You wish everyone would notice your pain,
But have you been observing?
You're not the only one
who wants to commit to something.

Every one has their good times
And times when they are sad.
Money, college, bills and kids;
Some are even going mad!

So next time you feel like
Your emotions are out of hand -
Ask yourself to observe other things;
And try to understand
