I like this poem because it reflects to me on a personal level. When I am playing a competitive tournament I find it difficult to play since I get nervous easily. The one time I was nervous so bad I actually found it hard to breath. I only hope to stop feeling nervous during each game of a tournament setting.

Office Hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM. I’ll be available through Zoom and will send an invitation via email that you should keep all semester. Try to join my meeting at the start of the hour, not at the end—since I may be talking to other students or have another appointment after the hour is up. If those times don’t work with your schedule, we can schedule a different time. This means you’ll have to schedule an appointment in advance. I suggest you have multiple times in mind, since your schedule may not mesh with mine!

wow! the poem is really sad and full of pain and emotion. I agree that this poem is related to so many people because mantel illness is the problem where there are negative thought occurs and its really hard to stop them and that is a really big problem.
