Holding Onto the Sun©

This morning I woke up with my eyes wide open ready for what I might see
The sun was just peaking preparing to rise, bringing light to yet another day
My body lagging behind me not wishing to follow the orders coming from my brain
Tiredness still overwhelming me from earlier day’s journey
The amount of work was truly beyond ones belief
Trying oh so hard to keep up with the rest
I know when the sun reaches its full peak of rising
I should be showered, fed and ready to go
But something continues to hold me back
My mind no longer controls my actions
I’m being run by the body in which I live
When did I lose control?
So hard I try to keep all in shape
Long walks to clear the clutter often stuck in my head
My music lends a piece of mind
While my exercise firms this shape that I’m in
The phone now rings as it is half past 6
Reminding me I’m to be on my way
My body no longer has control as my mind has come back into play
I’m sure we never stop to think of just how easy it is to lose ones control
Be thankful for a strong mind!
