I feel overwhelmed today
With problems coming my way
From every possible direction
I have no time for reflection
On what task to prioritize
I start with one thing and then realize
That another issue is more urgent
I then leave unfinished the task current
And jump on immediately to the next one
Hoping for no interruptions until it’s done
*
It is quite exhausting indeed
To pivot repeatedly based on the need
Of the hour, or the moment
It requires focus quite intense
Amid chaotic reshuffling of priorities
Strategic thinking and actions never cease
Until tasks are completed or rescheduled
During all this, adrenaline rush keeps me fueled
As I tackle each task, alone or with my team
Each successive step easier does seem
The feeling of being overwhelmed is replaced
By calm confidence, I feel accomplished that I have aced
The challenges that were placed before me
I think it is actually a privilege to be
In a position where I am challenged like this
Feeling accomplished at the end of a day is pure bliss
