The magnitude of what lies before me
It takes my breath away
So much at stake
So much to do
And all the while
The world keeps spinning
Not slowing down at all
I’m overwhelmed and under attack
Bit by bit eating away my hope
I get outside of the here and now
And worry begins to take over
For now all I can do is try to rest
And start over again tomorrow
