Set me free
from worldly stress
piling up
upon my chest

Getting heavy
I feel the weight
road gets curvy
far from straight

Let me go
I feel so trapped
it starts to show
I'm feeling cramped

Take my hand
show me the way
I have to learn
to get away

Guide me through
to piece of mind
this tiny thing
I need to find

I know I'm fine
just need to make
some time to stop
and take a break

We take "time"
for granted these days
many reasons to smile
in lifes long maze

So grab a friend
or someone you love
and make your day
something from "above".

Not a bad idea! Nice poem as well.

Wonderful poem friend. I have to tell you that I tripped over the 7th stanza though. The flow throughout the rest was good but I stumbled at the 7th and it made the rest seem difficult.
