Worry is Usless



It's normal when we worry, though
It won't do any good.
Since worry will not help us go
And do the things we should.

Some people still confuse concern
With worry though they're not
The same so everyone should learn
Concern is useful thought.

Affection and some empathy
Will cause some folks to lend
A hand to those who easily
Need help up to the end.

Some worry, on the other hand,
As if anxiety
Or fear could somehow hurt what's planned
Or change reality.
