Control


I cannot live without knowing that I am in control of my life...

I am a dancing flame.

I am everlasting and vibrant.

I glow brighter with every passing hour.

It is a calm feeling that encapsulates my being and eliminates my stress...

Behold my eyes which hold a story behind every twinkle.

The moon gazes upon me at the darkest hour.

Every wind, every breeze, every whisper,

I am eternal.

<p>This poem reflects the idea that I cannot live without knowing that I control my own destiny. And that our own selves are all we&#39;re ever really certain to have in life.</p>
