Stretching out

When the walls close in,
There's seemingly nothing you can do
Time is short, you don't smile with all thirty two,
All the work piled up, why didn't you foresee?
You think you're stuck, not really!

Everything's a blur, so set things straight
Stand where you are and chalk out your plan
Believe in yourself, believe you're right,
And go out there!, do whatever you can.

Do wipe off that sigh, it looks bad,
Put on a smile, oh that one's great!
Keep it on as long as you can
It's a real handy, rather useful trait!

Needless to say, its worth a shot;
After all you've got nothing to lose
In you're race against time, people; the whole lot
Nevertheless, upto you to choose!

And when you're done, just think a bit,
Of how you tried, and succeeded too;
Great going, indeed, but remember; you were in doubt,
Well, that's what you get for stretching things out!
