Writing Resources from Fifteen Minutes of Fiction

The strife called life

For this one time, just once
I'm not one of the flock on this boat
But the pressure just keeps building
And I feel the sting in my throat
I keep wondering, "How long"?
How long, till I break,
How long, till I give up ,
How long, till I lose out on this one chance
To set my soul straight, and finally
Raise the bar to an unreached level
Whilst a hundred eyes gaze at me
I lose a drop of sweat
OH! How much time is left
I need to take a break
But I must go on.......
For I am a veteran of this strife
That we all call life....
