I feel like a leaf
Blown around by the wind
While others stand as strong trees
My words and actions matter none

Yet I must orbit my tree
The calcified words of family
Or opinions of my friends
To them I fall to my knees

No will of my own
I float within
The winds of circumstance
Too tired to take control

I feel sleepy
Small, powerless
Why should I fight life
When all I've done is lose?

I surrender to your flow
Give up control

Let's see what happens :)
