Look up at the sky
Does it seem worried
By the clouds that pass it by?
Look towards the sea
Does it feel anxious
By the boats that sail on through?
Look around the earth
Does it look afraid
When the sun sets on a side?
Now look at yourself
How do you become
With problems that come and go
Nature is a teacher
Be at peace watching things flow
Sadness turns to happiness
And happiness does the same
If you try and take control
Of things in the world outside
They will grab a hold of you
And pin you to the ground
Do not become enslaved
To fleeting moments
That are gone in a flash
In the blink of an eye
Learn from your past
I know that you know
One day
This pain shall pass
