Adrift

my mind drifts like a soft cloud slowly moving across the sky
so much on and in my mind I do not know why I am so light
and yet and yet
I feel like have the weight of the world on me. like the sun will not rise
and yet and yet
I know that each day when I rise I will smile and greet the new day
that I want and need to keep going even when all seams dark and dreary
and yet and yet............

so many so much so little so high so low

all this is caused but very little but still some times
a mountain is but a mole hill when viewed by a giant and a mole hill
a mountain when viewed by a ant.

and yet and yet

we control the way we view things with our wills and with our minds
we alone of all the creatures of this earth can change things
with our minds or a thought or an action.

and yet and yet
we alone of all the creatures will allow our selves self pity and allow
that we sink way to the dark depths of our souls with no light shinning

so each day we must strive to not allow this to happen to us
to strive to see the light and beauty of life
