Having Control Poem by Audrey Heller

I used to be so even tempered,
nothing did I see, now, everything
that's said and done, seems to
bother me! I can be kind, edgy
and even snappy, all of this of
course, doesn't make me happy!
Control, I had it, not too long ago.
Where it's gone, I'd really like to
know? Do you think it's the times
we live in? It does get harder,
everyday and people, are not like
they used to be, they've become
indifferent, in every way! Everyone
you meet, is always in a hurry and
all you get to see, is the ever constant
worry! Well, now I think it's time for this
to stop. Begin to count to ten, then take
a deep breath and start all over again!
