Feeling Some Kind of Way

Feeling very overworked.
Not enough hours in the day.
Motivated to paint, but too much work.
Desire to write not strong enough.

Feeling run over by a dump truck.
World full of grief.
Life is really too short.
Things are just overwhelming.

Feeling out of sorts.
Eyes did get quite from last appointment.
Anxious about the next meeting.
Willing to stay home but I can't.

Feeling left out and alone.
Children aren't speaking.
Days seem entirely too long.
Can't stand the heat from morn till dusk.

Feeling grateful to be alive.
Knowing that many around me just died.
Hard to stay on track.
Complete loss of control.

Feeling just feeling.
Election blues are real.
Change is in the air.
Times are hard for most, and no one cares.

I just stopped feeling and decided to smile.
