It's not up to the wind
Are you broken, or are you whole?
Are you falling, or standing tall?
Are you sinking, or floating along?
And who decides this, after all?
Do you fly with the wind,
Wherever it blows?
In thunder or lightning,
Sunshine or snow?
Are you a victim of circumstance?
Do you soak in the rain, freeze in the snow,
Wherever the wind
Just so happens to blow?
But since when does the wind decide,
Whether we are wet or dry?
Or happy or sad? Or broken or whole?
We've lost control of what we own.
It's not up to the wind,
Or your boss or soul mate.
It's not up to your friend,
Or your terrible date.
It up to you, and you alone,
To create a foundation so strong,
You can remain grounded
When the wind comes along.
So are you broken, or are you whole?
Are you falling, or standing tall?
Are you sinking, or floating along?
The decision is yours, after all.
