My Worries

Let us go then, you and I,

I will take you on a journey,

And I will not lie.

An excursion like none other,

To see a different life,

One through the eyes another

To begin

Life is like a wave

It has its ups and downs,

At times it is choppy,

And at times it is smooth

People live and change,

They find excitement and love

My existence, however,

Must not have a moon to wane

For me, life is pure anxiety and pain

Any moment I think the wave will raise me, triumphant,

It just rolls on, passing by.

I try and I try

But no matter what, my hair remains dry

My Ocean is still.

To change

Life is like a sponge

We soak up anything we can

Whether good or bad, we absorb and contain

What separates the knowledgeable from the wise

Is what truly matters

It is not about how much we have soaked,

For some wet their rags to the fullest.

It is how we apply the goodness we soak up,

And how we discard the evil.

My Ocean stirs.

To solidify

Life is like a boat

Now is when you crash or burn

Take it or leave it.

Pass or fail.

You are at the fork.

Left or right?

The choice is yours.

The choice is mine as well.

My Ocean surges.

To end

Life is like a race

It is not always best to win,

For those who win do not live life to the fullest

They may have run the fastest and survived,

But they did not get to experience happiness.

Those who lose are the real winners,

Because they not only endured the race,

But they didn’t forget to enjoy it too.

My Ocean is gone.
