Perception

The water rushes past me; life I stand here strong Solid as a rock I am resisting the notion I have to go with the flow Do I let go or remain The thought of it seems easier to remain for many reasons But to flow with the water as it rushes past seems simply carefree Can I be that free It's rushing past me; opportunities I just have to let loose Something inside is keeping me here I'm stuck; my head and heart My feet want to move What is it I ask myself? It's deep Very deep Not the water, my gut; the feeling inside I stand here lost in a sense looking for meaning Nothing Another day wasted? I change over time and time has yet to tell The sun rises and I rise as well Could today be the day the decision is made? The mystery keeps me on my toes I will find my way, One way or another
