Water


My exhistance is like an ocean; a basic supply

To the human planet.

My emotions are like a river; deep and flowing one minute, strong and deadly another.

My drop from reality is like a waterfall; suspeneded in the air for seconds before crashing hard.

My patience is like a creek; quietly moving on, and rarely making a sound.

My reflection is like a pond; still and there, but covered in lillies and algae.

My knowledge is like a mist; clouding things from myself, hoping I can at least know they are there.

My anger is like steam; fast and leaving the kettle, and can never be put back.

My tears are like dew; falling down, rolling down to the underside, where nobody can see.
