Definition of stress

Tick,

Tock,

Tick,

Tock,

You know it's bad,

When you count along with the clock.

You strum your fingers against the desk,

Bite you nails a little bit.

You want to stop,

But there's no way to quit.

You flinch and twitch,

Shift your weight and fidget.

You get some annoyed glares,

But they just don't get it!

It's this huge presentation,

The final test.

What did you do,

To earn all this stress?!

It's almost time,

But you can't leave yet.

It's now time to deal,

With the source of this stress!
