Spinning

It has come, we have been waiting with anticipation
Our breath held
We cringed when we heard, slowly accepted, and when it happened
We were not prepared
Change is upon us and we are just along for the ride
Without anything strapping us in
The world is spinning, the ground less solid
We try to grab ahold but it slips through our fingers like sand
We try to see what's ahead but we can't focus
As everything around us crumbles
We try to catch our breath
But it is snatched away like the leaves on an autumn morning
Where we will end up we'll never know till we get there
But it's up to us to decide to make it good or bad place...
