That’s Life

I walk this path most everyday,
To clear my head from disarray.
There’s internal chaos in my mind,
And I try to leave it all behind.
The sound of nature in my ear,
Is all I really want to hear.
Life is stressful all the time,
Can’t catch a break , watching every dime
Gotta work overtime just to stay alive,
With rising costs it’s hard to survive.
Stress is like a parasite that’s taken hold,
Controlling my body, mind and soul.
I need a new car and a new job as well,
If the devil came calling, I just might sell.
It’s hard to be happy when life’s such a mess,
So many emotions I need to address.
They say it gets easier and there’s a light up ahead,
I try to stay positive to overshadow the dread.
So I walk this path most everyday,
And pray that luck will come my way.
