The mind stresses

Past and future sleeps with me
 Stress levels are on a killing spree
 responsibilities on top of wonders of who I am to be 
 I don't know which right now is more important to see

 My age has got me scared of the clock
 pushing me to join the rest of the flock  
I don't know if I’ll achieve all I want before Death's knock

contemplating on what's not known to me yet
tossing back and forth about what I regret
 meanwhile praying that God has something already set

 Insecurities have a place in my bed
 doubtful voices have a place in my head
 despite the encouraging words that you said
 despite the philosophies that I have read
 Keep it up and depression and I might wed 
and won't be apart till I’m dead 

 sweepstakes for a briefcase and an office on the top floor 
So much money on uncertainty going out the door 
 still at the casino dishing out more 
because trying has always been the core 

 or something like that... 

                                                                                                                                                B.W
