Lately

I often wonder if I am enough
If I am made of all the right stuff
Lately, it seems I have wondered more
So many things in life are such a chore

There are people that have need of me
Asking for this or that, please let me be
More often than not my head is full
To give up for a while, I feel the pull

I am tired but resistant to big life change
Would it not be fun to roam the range?
Riding on a horse that is strong and true
Gazing at skies filled with endless blue

I wrote Lately to help address feelings of being overwhelmed and the desire to get away from my life for a while. Sometimes I look out the window and let my mind drift. Doing so gives me a chance to rest and serves to reduce the temperature of my thoughts.
