Though the sun is shining
Around me it constantly rains
I wish I could walk on water
Just to float for a change
When the effort you strive to put in
Just get skewed and flayed
Do you give up
Do i just run from this race
This world frozen and so cold
we must icely face
fighting day in and day out
Like quicksand
We still sink in this space
is this world a disgrace
since when did our moral compass
get so magnetically displaced
wish daily i could retrace
every missed step i ever took
yet that’s just a wish i can’t make
so I have to be relentless
in this journey I take
give everything, every second
and just hope I don’t break
I can’t shout loud enough
because the air I breathe is just fake
it’s not giving me life
but a losing fight that i hate
This world is cold. It's for us to find the strength within in us ....smile daily
Live daily do not succumb to a world dying. The other side of my poetic licence
