Warty

Sometimes I over-worry: this I know
Has been a problem often in my past.
I do not let the situation grow
Into fruition, when it should, at last,
Be fully understood. Instead I fear
Before the time has come for fearful things,
Flinching before the stroke ever comes near.
This over-worried way of mine then brings
A great deal too much stress considering
It isn't necessary. I should be
Much calmer, but instead I always cling
To worry, and then let it get to me.
It's silly to be so, but I can't choose:
Could I do so, this is something I'd lose.
