Tired and Still Have Room for More Love

Every day you have a routine

Figuring out what you need to do

My body feels tired

In a good way

I have a job to go to

Then when I get time to rest

I think of what I love to do best

All the joy of love

That comes natural

Never a struggle

The wonderful feelings that translate into beautiful sensations

That make up a world of tingles

Yes I am talking about those spine chilling, rhythmic pulses

Once you had one you always want more

With so many things in life to think about

This is the very tippity, top of my list

I must insist

In a short time span

Some things can be dreadful

That I can't wait to forget

Then there are unique circumstances that can dominate every thought

I concentrate

Then find ways to repeat each moment

Bringing it back as soon as it has left

This time stronger with more energy and zest

Some people find it so hard to explain

They never dare talk about it

Other people hint around the bush

I personally like to use a more subtle approach

Where you can follow me right from the start

Even on a slow day

I am not far from the pack

As I round the corner

I fall a little behind

Just practicing my stride

I cut to the inside

Where I begin to make my move

Stride for stride

I am gaining a little at a time

Now pulling a tiny little lead

Ever so slight

Now my opponents begin to weaken

As I look to my left I see Doubt

Then as I go even faster

Problems start to slip behind

Lazy now gets a side cramp

Ahead I see Frustration

Still in a good lead

Insecurity is having trouble

Impossible is struggling

This is where I focus

I take deep breaths and practice great control

I have been here many times before

In the past I have lost many races

I have also won more times than I can remember

Each day may be the same on the outside

Inside there are so many other hidden emotions at play

So I keep from being frustrated and put down

By clowning around

Turning each unhappy feeling into a real person

Then taking all the things that I love

Contentment, satisfaction, comfort, passion

Pride, energy, desire and help mold me

Each time adding a little more than before

In the end I know I have given it my best shot

There was no need to compromise and find short cuts

The long way is the best way

Each time I practice

I learn more about myself

Giving me the most reward
