Speak a little softer, please
Your words tread on my heart.

Step a bit more carefully,
Your path my life doth part.

Ode to Frustration (or keys locked in the car...)

Tick....tock

Tick....tock

I watch the clock

I'm stuck

It seems I'm

Often stuck.

Stuck at school

or home

in time

or in my mind,

Or out of it.

You know,

Anyone can lose it

If they lose the will to find it,

Again, and again,

And again.

Patience child,

your time will come.

Just watch the clock,

It's almost there.

Tick...tock

Tick...tock
