THE WIND TUGGING AT YOUR SLEEVE

Can you feel the wind,
tugging at your sleeve
and telling you to look away,
while storm clouds roll overhead
and the rest of the world
is not okay,
though there's peace in your heart;

I cannot look away
when the rest of the world is in turmoil-
even if I'm not,
which is why I don't.
