Distressed

A poem discussing distress and its inevitable mess

What is the reason for distress?

The lesson I guess
is not very much less
than when my thoughts digress
into a mess.

So focus I must
for focus is just
a means of suppressing
the urge to discuss.

Well I should have guessed
such an arduous test
would make every expression
feel restlessly repressed.

So though I respect
that such method is best
I feel only further lost
as I fail to progress.
