I Promise

Even when the world
seems to be spiraling around you,

don't go up in the tornado
of misfortune going on around you.

Keep both feet planted firmly in the ground.

Keep in mind that despite your circumstance,
you've still got a grasp of your significance.

Even if those feet are planted in;
sadness,
        despair,
                loneliness,
                            guilt,
                                    shame
or any other particular ailment.

Those are things worth feeling
when the wind dies down
and you can finally see the sun again.
