Within Me

When I can’t
Make sense
Of the world
Around me

Which

By the way
Is always

I try

To make sense
Of the world
Within me

Try to be true
To the things
That I know

Try to remember
Who I am
At the core

Try to walk strong

Through the chaos
That surrounds me
 
Try not
To rush my days
Or wish them away
For fear
Of the unknown

Try to remember

That life
Can be complicated
And these things
Take time

And I do have time

And I can wait out

Any storm
Around me or within me
With the best of them
