Eventually
Today is earlier than usual.
It's not like any other days,
it's becoming a ritual.
Tasks at hand were once confusing;
like riding the waves slowly, you're cautious to not make mistakes,
yet, you were falling.
Eventually the ride gets easy.
Even when the water is raging,
you continue believing--
moving is breezy.
Relax your mind and your body will follow.
Allow your soul to take over,
release all the sorrow--
soak in all the positivity,
spirits, swallow.
When things get crazy,
your vision gets hazy.
Just close your eyes, imagine a world where there are skies--
of no lies.
Where the ground is stable;
not shaken by any label.
Now open your eyes;
Do you see a world of disguise?
Capture that vision, now you realize.
The politics, views, the price of arguing--
the war, hunger, win a prize of suffering.
Today is still early.
It's never too late.
When are you going to make a change?
Start by breathing, speaking--
let your message reverberate.
You're getting used to the ride.
You're moving steadily--cruising.
Skipping your steps, you don't mind bruising.
Your journey extends through space--traversing.
Eventually the ride gets easy.
Even when the water is raging,
you continue believing--
moving is breezy.
Relax your mind and your body will follow.
Allow your soul to take over,
release all the sorrow--
soak in all the positivity,
spirits, swallow.
