Patience, But Hurry!

If only I had more patience
my heart wouldn’t pound like a drum,
My stomach wouldn’t be tied up in knots
my outbursts wouldn’t have any place to come from.

If only I had more patience
I wouldn’t be nearly as hurried,
I wouldn’t make as many mistakes
and I sure wouldn’t be as worried.

As a human with enough intelligence
you would think that something would connect,
And I would work on increasing my patience
so I wouldn’t be such a nervous wreck.
