Things have to get worse before they get better.

So much depends upon
too many things
that are out of our
control.

Too many things depend upon
the things that we
choose
to let be out of our
control.

Yet,
while so many things are
dependent,
the sweetest
stand alone.

The author's comments:
I love this poem because everyone interprets it differently, which is how art should be.
