‎"I’m learning how to drown out the constant noise that is such an inseparable part of my life. I don’t have to prove anything to anyone. I only have to follow my heart and concentrate on what I want to say to the world: I run my world." - Beyoncé

Life is a rainbow
But the colors are fading
And now black and white

Life is a voyage
But the tempest wrecked my ship
And now sinking down

Life is a shelter
But the tsunami hit it
It cannot be home

No, life is weather
It might have been raining hard
But it is changing...

I like the emotion and thought that was put into this.

I like how the stanza's have their own little topic. It was nice!

That was nice. I liked the effect of the last stanza. All the rest is about life going down, then bam it's up at last. It gives off a satisfying feeling.
