Continuity in Existence

The sun is bright as I stare straight ahead

It blisters my eyes as the sky fades to red

The new moon rises egging me on

Just when it seems within reach it falls away

Life is like the waves in an ocean

It comes and goes with no particular pattern or direction

Sometimes it’s pleasant and other times it’s rough

Dreams are like stars

They burn brightly as you chase them

Then burn out of sight or disappear with the night

Love is lasting and sometimes hurts

Leaving you a little more broken and a little bit stronger

Yet it seems to get you to those far off destinations

The ones that seem impossible

The ones that seem pointless

The ones you always longed to reach yet never grasped
