And So It Is

And so it is.

This day. This hour. This minute.

I can resist. I can accept. Which will I choose?

Doom. Fear. Grief.

Resolve. Courage. Hope.

All are present. Moving through me like waves.

I swish. I swirl.

Then I must move.

To rise above. To be taken under.

Will I attempt to control? Will I surrender to faith?

I choose to ride the wave.
