life's a battle
Life is a stream,
so go with the flow.
live life to the fullest you can
always going left and right,
like a downhill depression.
grief is an overtaking force dragging us down
the waves are your soul,
as free as the air.
freedom is everwhere but not always free
the angry screaming rapids,
the anger rising in our hearts
roar above the ripples.
the current full of stirred emotions.
the curves of the banks our struggles,
ways we deal with our stress with emotions.
leaves float upon the water drifting away.
like when we drift away in thought we lose track of the past,
submerging in the whirlpool cast away by our dreams.
so yes as i have preached before.
life is as a stream,
but not always a dream.
there are ups and there are downs
up on the waves the leaves shall flow,
carried off to amend the soul
the stream will release your pain and fear
so breach the waves once more.
