Whatever comes comes:

‍

Whatever comes comes.

‍

Whatever goes goes.

‍

I cannot control.

‍

Where the wind blows.

‍

I cannot control.

‍

How the birds sing.

‍

I cannot control.

‍

Where the sun rises.

‍

But I can control.

‍

The time I have.

‍

I can control.

‍

The relationships I keep.

‍

I can control.

‍

The time I sleep.

‍

Life is but a series of moments.

‍

Experiences.

‍

Decisions.

‍

Some big.


Some small.

‍

Most outside your control.

‍

Some within it.

‍

We live thinking we can control it all.

‍

But that is but a fool’s call.

‍

For life doesn’t care.

‍

Which way the wind blows.

‍

Or how the birds sing.

‍

Or where the sun rises.

‍

Life goes on.

‍

For whatever comes comes.

‍

Whatever goes goes.
