Time is now the enemy.
Just one moment is all I need.
Running in a circle now.
Always caught up in the crowd.
How do others make it by?
Are they as crazy in their lives?
Call for help but no one cares.
They all have their own despairs.
Doctor fix me; my body gives.
There is no time to rest and deal.
Things are coming from all ways.
It's been like this most everyday.

Betrayal from a cherished friend,
where will all the heartache

succumbing to frustration,
by Bobby Coles
Boiling point reached a couple of stressors ago
Seems as though you're in a self-induced prison
Nowhere to turn to, nowhere
