Dear Worry ,
Why do you like to stick in my mind?
Why do you make my fear bigger than they are?
I tried to buried you with a good positive song.
Once the song ended you come back again.
How do I get rid of you, because you are no longer needed.
What is your purpose in life ?
You are great at loitering my brain
I will find your Kryptonite
You will finally be gone from my life.
Look away when a problem appear.
Look away when I get hurt.
Look away when bills come knocking on my door.
I know how to solve my problems
And take care of my business
You are certainly no help but taking space in my brain and causing stress.
Bye, Bye dear worry
Yours Truly,
Consolation

I'm with you on this one when you say 'you are no longer needed' This was a great subject to write a letter to... Good luck!
More wise words & counsel all of us should heed.
Now, there's a pain that can well be felt. Nicely done. ❤️
Wonderful 😊
Omg, this was just so relatable. If worry had another name, it would have been Dharrsheena hahaha. I just worry so much because I have this need to be prepared for very possible outcome of a situation. And it exhausts me. But do I stop? No, lol! I'm so sorry I'm unable to help you in any way. I loved your poem!
Wonderful!!! Loved it!!!
