Favorite Quote:
" Just keep swimming."


The road is long and deep
There is no retreat
You can't go back you must keep going
On and on with the ocean blowing

Your a quarter way their and the weather is cloudy
The birds aren't chirping
And the kids aren't laughing
You take a turn and hope for better
But now you are in the horrid weather

The rain pours down on your lifeless soul
It is wandering around and sees no other soul
You look to your left and look to your right
What is the direction you'll go tonight
Unwillingly a strong wind comes and takes you straight
And now you are halfway there

Everything is looking better
Under the blue sky and warm weather
You meet new souls and see new people
But they leave you and you are in steep hole
Where did they go and why did they leave?
They said that they wanted to go on this journey with me

A wind picks you up and keeps you going
You are almost at the finish line and a storm starts blowing
The ski is dark and nothing is clear
A tornado comes and wipes you out
But you can not shout

You are stuck and stuck and can not leave
You feel like it has been an eternity
But then something comes, another soul!
Maybe it will find me and take me home

At last it found you this new soul takes you to the finish line
The journey is done
The skies are clear
Everything is better here
