Paranoid

All of todays stress dawns on me
as I take a visit back to memory lane.
Pill after pill makes me feel better but
sometimes I know I have to train myself
to tread water. Stupid mistakes and misreading
signals leaves me mortified but then I think
of what a wise woman told me, to always
be positive even when you're drowning.
So here I sit writing this poem, fixing all my
mistakes from today. And the ones I can't fix,
I make better because I know that the world
still turns even after this horrible day.
