Under the weight of pressure, I find myself,
Beneath a burden that seems too much to handle.
My mind races, my heart pounds,
As I struggle to keep pace, to keep my candle.
The expectations loom over me like a dark cloud,
And I feel like I'm suffocating, I'm not allowed,
To breathe, to think, to take a break,
I must push through, for my own sake.
Every moment feels like an eternity,
As I strive to meet the demands that I see,
But it's a never-ending cycle, a constant fight,
And I fear that I'll lose myself in this endless night.
My body aches, my head spins,
As I try to keep up with the constant whims,
Of those who hold me under their thumb,
And make me feel like I'm always on the run.
But I must persevere, I must be strong,
For the pressure won't last forever long.
I'll take a deep breath, and find my center,
And slowly, I'll rise up, I'll enter.
Into a place of calm and peace,
Where the pressure can no longer cease,
My spirit will soar, my mind will clear,
And I'll find the strength to overcome my fear.
For I am strong, and I am capable,
And I won't let this pressure be insurmountable.
I'll rise above it, I'll take control,
And I'll find my way out of this deep hole
