Calmness is Power
CALM DOWN
.
How do you do it? Calm down?
How do you do it?
When all you see is hurt?
When all you hear is cry?
When all you think of is guilt, anxiety?
When all you feel is pain?
When all you touch is unpleasant?
When you see dreams shatter?
When you wipe away tearful eyes?
When you struggle to be the strongest person in the room, but you are caught between breaking down, or screaming your lungs out in anger?
.
How do you maintain calmness?
When it's windy outside?
When it's broken inside?
When it's so cloudy above?
When it's raging beneath?
When it's swirling around?
.
How do you do it?
When the spirit is shattered?
When the air runs out?
When words are few and tears are many?
When love gets lesser and lesser?
When hurt grows bigger and bigger?
.
Tell me how do you keep calm?
When every option presented before you points you to the one reaction you must give - rage, ungodly rage.
.
How do you do it when all options point you to react in the opposite manner?
