Life

My eyes are leaking because I’m allergic to life The rivers of my eyes flowing immensely, one into another For I am afraid of being blind to what lies ahead of me There’s nothing worse than jumping out of an airplane with no parachute Nothing to assure the preparedness and safety of your journey On the way down thinking is “Am I gonna crash and burn?” At this moment I don’t know up from down Neither my heart nor my mind is calm Too many thoughts and emotions rushing all around me In a whirlwind of chaos I need steady I need stable My feet on the ground My head up proud My mind clear and ready To conquer this thing little thing call life
