We are all fish in the sea
swiming in pods; called families
waves come and then they leave
life is shit then its a breeze
*
Swim to and fro
pretending we know where to go
get sucked into the current
shaken up and spit back out
just have to get comfortable taking a new route
not sure up from down
All i know is fish don’t have an option to drown
*
We are all carrying so much weight
be careful not to take the wrong bait
*
No one knows how much you can take
besides yourself, for goodness sake
No one knows how long you can swim
even yourself; until you begin
show the goodness you hold within
Prove that you can come out stronger
Prove you can hold on even longer
*
You might have a few good days then wait in suspense
Some days the weight you carry will feel too dense
Others you will feel you can conquer the sea
Just know you are stronger than even YOU KNOW, little fishy
