The Vessel of Life

The brain is an ever changing vessel filled with first

impressions, truths and lies of what life gives and also

takes away.

 

It is a vessel filled with hope, regret sadness and joy a place of

learning yearning forever's and goodbyes.

 

The mind delivers tragedies break ups make ups illusions

confusion love of what there is and what there’s not.

 

Hope and sadness sorrow pain as we go through life looking for

some type of gain walking on our heals one step ahead but one

step back lost like spitting into the wind.

 

We strive, connive and play our cards and what is shown is what

lies, all for a glimpse of what is ours.

 

The vessel drains then it fills overflows gives us thrills, it beats

our heart and pumps the blood it gives us life. Is that

understood?

 

Yet we abuse infuse but try not to lose our way so we can stick

around another day to play the game of life for which we pay.
