Flowing Words

the ups and downs
the lefts and rights
the twisty trails
the ongoing fights
the lessons learned
the love thats grown
the feeling of family
the feeling of alone
the choatic noise
the silent air
your wild and crazy
in your secrective lair
The people you meet
the strangers you cross
the bonds that forge
and relationships lost
the feeling of alive
is nothing without  hurt
can't wash away nothing
unless you got  dirt
the way you respond
to lifes crazy fashion
is a quick little inside
to your deepest passions
Live on to the fullest
to the greatest extent
expect nothing elaborate
and just be content
push for what you want
dont ever feel destroyed
do it all yourself
and feel overjoyed

The ending verses, " Do it all yourself, and feel overjoyed", raw feelings here and the title suits such a piece, for your words are flowing indeed. Intresting.. Love, Sami.
