Glued to the ground
by my own indecisiveness,
the winds of change blew past-
threatening to topple me over.
Waves of yesterday’s regrets
washed over me, engulfing
tomorrow’s opportunities.
Gaining momentum,
I was mentally unprepared
to adapt to future surroundings,
paralyzed in my present state.
I resisted the force that was
trying to drag me down,
while I rested at a standstill,
waiting for the breeze to calm
[though I knew peace was
permanently rooted in the past].
