Borrowed Poem

I borrowed this poem.  Sometimes, yes, it's how it feels.

Squeezing

There's a rope around my chest, tied tightly.

Can you?
Will you?
When can we?

Do you have?
Do we need?
Where is this?

My brain doesn't stop. My body doesn't stop. I begin to breathe harder.

When is?
Where are?
Did you?

What's this?
When's that?
Do you know?

I am superwoman. I can do it all. I will do it all.

Slow down.
Move faster.
Get me that.

Momma, can I?
Momma, UP!
Honey, you okay?

I don't know.

  1. I'll make sure to work on asking less of these kinds of questions so you can have less stress dear wifey :)

  2. It's not necessarily the questions, m'love. It's me not stopping to take a breath or just plain asking for help. That is what I need to do, instead of just bottling it up and thinking I HAVE to do it all myself.
