The River of Life

The river is long and ever-changing

Different to all yet always constant

It flows quickly never aging

Flying by in an instant

The river has hopes and dreams

Usually crushed by the reality of things

Its a chance, a gamble

That few are able to handle

Though the chances are slim and the river is rough

You still throw everything in

Thinking those chances are wide and accepting

All to your demise

I hate your stupidity for giving it your all

But I know thats not in my control

Even though our rivers cross 

I can only help you at much cost

“Your plan will not work;

It’s just to hard” I say

But you deny my and try anyway

 

Then when you’re stranded

Your dream torn up,

I will be on the banks

Cheering you up

You gave it your all 

with less in return

Although this is not all you earned

You earned knowledge and wisdom

And all sorts of things,

That only can be given by dreams

Thrown in rivers with full force

And though you’re stupid 

And though you’re dumb

I know there’s only one you under the sun

So, don’t worry my dear

Go in with everything

I have a floaty

And I’ll save things
