Disembarkation of turmoil

by Everlasting

Enlighten yourself
to choose the river path
from the calling of your heart;

Otherwise,
be ready to disembark
in the oceanic turmoil
of non tranquility,

To extend your arms,
and to follow the cascading
waters of your own insecurities
just to let them lead you
to the bottom of
their non shallow universe.

Allow them to wring you
in a glass of your
own frustrations.

Until you have
become
hilariously boring
of the same
mundane routine
of self esteem,

then be prepare to drink
even the last drop of water
from the oceanic glass
of your own desperation

to easily swim
to the surface
of the non shallow
universe that you
have created.

Then be ready to maintain
your arms extended
to greet the cascading waters
from the ideal river,

and to disembark
in a different land
as a new Tourist
in order to capture
the beauty of your life
from another angle.

Until then, be ready.
