"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

Don't worry honey
you need to chill
think that things work out
and they most likely will

Take a deep breath
sure there is lots to fear
but nothings ever perfect
and lets make this very clear

your life is a waste
if you worry all the time
so take it day by day
and it will turn out fine

© Martha V., Morton Grove, IL

The author's comments:
Sometimes when I get stressed out or afraid I need to reassure myself that everything will work out. Hence this poem, writing in class after a particularly upsetting test grade.
