On it continues
Always seeming to be
One step ahead
Lagging behind
Life moving, changing
More quickly than can be handled
How is one to cope with all of this?

Just when
Things seems stable
Everything topples
Trying to catch
And hold on to everything
As so much seems to slip away
As it comes crashing down on all sides

Grab hold of the reigns
Take control of life
Hold on to those things
That are most important
Stay close to those
Why are most important in life
To how them how much they really mean
