Because I could not control my stress

My stress easily controlled me

It always seemed to lurk inside

Without a guarantee

These past few weeks I have lost all ease

Unable to work on assignments given

I try to study to become an expertise

Yet, I never seem to be driven

No force within me inspires me to push harder

I only feel a force that seems to do all but inspire

Long days and nights pass, but it never seems to fade

It is almost as if the feeling is acting against me

There will come a day when this feeling leaves from within me

A day when a grade no longer defines the person I become

Although the force inside me now may be unfree

A day will come when I no longer feel overdone

Life, indeed, goes on
