There you are tirelessly breaking your back
Not accepting the time that you lack
Given your objective you strain to achieve
Not willing to accept the worker’s reprieve
Unwavering, since you answered the call
Weary, but determined never to fall
Your hands move feverishly through each detail
Mindfully purposed to always prevail
The hours of each day never suffice
With determination, you’ll pay the price
Weighing the costs, you see the fine line
And the goal, sweet victory, truly sublime
All those who watch are completely amazed
Admiring your work as you push through, unfazed
In the frenzy they whisper, pointing out this and that
Trying to figure out how to tell you with tact
In the midst of their amazement they can’t help but wonder
How you have failed to notice your blunder
And now ruthlessly trying to get your attention
You barely notice that it’s you they beckon
Reluctantly you set aside your precious work
And look around to find the family you shirk
With longing they call you back to their fold
And you stare and wonder how you’ve gotten so old
