Wind
We're like a cliff
Crumbling at the edges
As something as harmless as wind whips around and tears off the little things
But when the little things come off one by one
They lead to something greater and bigger than we knew
The things we might have taken for granted are gone
Because of something as harmless as wind
You see in our lives the wind could be jobs or money
They seem harmless but when you let them control you
The things that you didn't know you enjoyed so much are gone
One by one
Piece by piece
Eventually all the wind has defend you
It's taken away your passions your dreams
The things you've always hoped for.
You see wind isn't always bad
It helps the earth function
But when it gets out of control it can become a monster
It will tear the needed soil out of the ledges in cliffs
It will cause storms to happen out of nowhere
And it can leave you alone and broken
So don't let the wind control you
Don't let your life crumble away
Be the person you were meant to be without wealth and riches. Jobs and pleasures.
Be who your creator made you to be
