Control

Chaos,

Everything falling around me.

It does not matter,

I will make it through.

Because I am in control,

Guide my way through this dark path.

All these things I am used to,

Pain,

Sorrow,

Anger,

Hate,

My pride wills me to rise up once more.

———

It is the things I do not understand though,

That may yet make me fall.

Why do I lose control?

What causes this uncertainty?

These feelings that come from nowhere,

Loosed and out of control.

I have no reign over myself,

I can’t stop any of it.

Watching myself from afar,

Shaking my head at the fool that is me.

Logic cannot define any of it,

I can’t guide it.

Everything is out of . .

Control.

Interesting. Makes me wonder what prompted the verse, if it’s a single incident or something more general….
