Drama Queen

Everyone who meets her sees the image
of sweetness and light she tries to portray
This portrayal can seem unconvincing from time to time
to those who know her better than she knows herself
Yet this isn’t her “best friend’s” pet peeve
 
Her “best friend’s” pet peeve is that she always seems to be on edge
two seconds from a meltdown every time her friend turns around
All the while blaming everyone around her for
being the cause of her stress and shortcomings
It’s hard for her friend to watch while she’s in that state of mind
Sometimes she acts as if the world’s going to end
if she doesn’t  save it on her own

If her friend could offer her some advice
she’d  tell her to stop letting life get her down
and to take it as it comes
She’d then tell her to take responsibility for her own actions
and the resulting consequences of those actions
instead of blaming  others when things don’t go her way
Yet the most important piece of advice she would give her
would be to stop being a drama queen
If she could do that her stress would just melt away
