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.
