Greetings and welcome to writing.com!
What a great question: what if I do stop and enjoy life? It challenges all the unhappy thoughts that bounce through one's head, threatening to take down our well-being. We see the narrator take a deep breath and remember who they are, and that it's ok to be human and do things that give us our identity.
I love the tidy spacing and the short, quick free verse lines, drawing us down through the questions and leaving us to draw our own conclusions and themes. Why be bogged down in sadness and gloom when at the very least we can play some music to drown out the intrusive thoughts...?
You should add two more relevant genres to the item, so it can be more easily found when browsing and also to give as many opportunities as possible for Quill Award Nominations (for more information on The Quills, see Jeff) I would recommend Drama, Psychology, Experience or Philosophy.
I think you should try entering this at "Shadows and Light Poetry Contest" , it seems like the sort of thing they'd appreciate. It's always great fun to win a ribbon on a deserving item
