Spinning Out of Control

Life spinning out of control

it seems these days
that life is spinning out of control
everyday the news is grim
more people are dying
as the virus spreads out of control

but in these days 
where everything seeks 
to be beyond our control

it is best to remember
to worry about
those things 
one can control

and the rest
will take care 
of it self

you can only control
yourself
and your emotions

so step back
relax
and take control
of your mind

that is only way to cope
when the world
seems out of control
