b"PRESSURE coping BY QUANDRE DAVISChester Charter Scholars Academy Healthy HighlightsAm I at fault for feeling this way As pressure builds and skies turn gray?The weight upon my shoulders tight,A constant battle, day and night.My mind is racing, thoughts collide,A storm inside I cannot hide.I search for answers, seek relief,But stress just deepens, causing grief.Each breath I take, a trembling sigh,I wonder how much more I can try.The world keeps spinning, never slow,while I'm caught in the undertow.But in the chaos, I must findA way to calm this restless mind.Am I at fault? Perhaps, it's true,But healing starts with seeing through.For though the pressure's heavy, strong,I know I'll find where I belong.The weight will ease, the clouds will part,And peace will settle in my heart.What we learned about coping Be helpful with your friends.
