Water Water Water


Water Water Water 

how can something so innocent and pure also be so deadly

it's healthy, but fall into a bunch of it

then you better know how to swim

Humans

so smart

so kind

but get in their way and you began to wonder where did humanity go

you start to question their creulty

and you wonder why not use the smarts and talents for good

Houses 

a safe place for many

until it falls apart

when the walls crumble it becomes a trap

just hope the hurricane isn't stronger than it

Everything made for good has the power to do the opposite

but if you get too caught up in one aspect of something 

then you my friend are setting yourself up for failure

love hard, but know that it to isn't gauranteed

You can only do so much, but pay attention to the signs

they are there to guide

in the case that you can't see the opposing aspects

What you look at is what you see

the whole picture isn't always visible

trust your guts and you will find the right footing.
