If u love a person
It feels like diving in the Caribbean Sea on a big luxury ship with everything u need
But
If u lose the person
U don't only lose her
No.....no you also lose the ground under your feet
And before u can remark and observe
You find yourself underwater
You can't gasp for air
Your body feels numb
And everything is just a big wild mess
You can't even remember where up and down is

So
U might get yourself out of water
Your body still in the ocean but sad eyes looking for somebody
Somebody to help
And it's not gonna end there huh
Cause the waves keep crashing and crashing over you when you least expect it

But
U may also find yourself
Finally on land
Without expecting it

So no matter how hard life is
how many times u keep getting thrown off the boat
Just remember
That there will always be a land
So just keep on swimming
And remind yourself
that the more u swim
the better u become at it
This is aaaa very old one. I always loved the metaphor water..(u may find it in other poems of me too)

Was it worth it?
Are you glad that you went through all that,
Just to prove that you can?

What good are my admirations?
Although inherently good they maybe.
What good are they, at present, to me?
A word can only travel so far

Take what you can get
Even if it's not what you want.

A shoulder to cry on.
A comforting hug.
A piece of advice.


Because sometimes what you want
Is not what you need.
