pressure // a poem

in #poetry4 years ago

pressure builds
crushing me
and you don't bat an eye

pressure builds
forcing me
to put myself aside

pressure builds
choking me
until I start to cry

but you don't see

don't care

as long as I stay in line

You have a simple and direct style that I like very much. Poetry says it best when it says it in very few words, the fewer the better. You've got this down.

Sink into your self
Be still
Harness your stillness
Take command

Hey you just inspired that bit so thank you very much I will be using it.

Thank you, and that's beautiful! I'm getting back into poetry so I appreciate the encouragement :)
