Stress Is A Killer
The stress is killing you. Let it go.
As the Paul McCartney song says. Let it be.
No one else really needs to know.
Let it go and you will be free.
Stress and worry is a killer.
It will bring you down.
It is worse than whipped cream filler.
Before long, you will no longer be around.
Get rid of stress, whatever it takes.
Exercise, vacation, even meditation.
You will sleep better and do better when awake.
I don’t think anyone needs that aggravation.
It manifests itself in a number of diseases.
You won’t be aware till it is too late.
With continued denial, it increases.
With the grim reaper, you will have a date.
Get rid of what is stressing you out.
Turn off the nightly news, if it’s the cause.
Maybe bills or health is what it’s about?
Time to sit back and take a pause.
Financial planners or doctors may help.
Relaxing music may do the trick.
Find what you like by checking Yelp.
Just don’t let relief give you the slip.
It can be a matter of life and death.
Something not to be ignored.
Take advantage of what you have left.
It is in your best interest, I implore.
