A Difficult Boss

WDifficultBoss117x175
What can I do?
Too much is expected of me.
Good is never good enough.
I cry on the way to work,
makeup ruined before I get there.

My boss rages, unjustified.
When I speak softly,
Iím told to be less timid.
When I speak up,
I'm told I'm too aggressive.

I cannot please this person.
I've tried so hard
and I'm exhausted.
I fear losing my job,
I fear keeping it.

Please give me understanding
to resist anxiety,
anger, unrest,
bitterness, and hopelessness.
Rescue me when my spirit
is overwhelmed.

Thank You. In my distress
I can call out to You for help,
knowing You will answer.

Dress me in your
armor of calm today,
with head held high.
I will feel perfected,
for Iím good enough for You.
