Storm

I was stubborn

But not any more

Humbled by circumstances

Which are now, and which were before

I was naive

But not any more

The ground slipped under my feet

Which I sensed, but not before

What I am now

I was not before

A  storm razed in between

Things are not as they were before

Sense a storm

Before it comes

Quickly gather your will, grit and dreams

Everything else you have, far away it goes

Today is today

Tomorrow we don't know

What we do today

It is tomorrow's stepping stone

Tomorrow we shall make

We have weathered many storms

A reed we were, steel we now show

Nothing touches us, storms may pass and go!
