The Perfect Fish

Among the sea there are trillions
Of fish like you and me,
We strive to find our other half 
That match us perfectly.

But often you will find yourself 
Caught up among the tide, 
You suck it up and do your best
And hold on for the ride.

But once you break away from it 
The path you start to take,
A path that leads you straight towards 
A chance to make or break.

Then blindly you will find a fish 
That matches perfectly,
A fish that shows no matter what 
With you they swim the sea.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
