Be like water!
Don't resist
Just go with the flow
There will be rapids
There will be falls
Finally there will be a calm deep River
And someday will merge with the deepest ocean
Don't burn
Just steam away when hot
Only to condense later when cool
Don't shiver
Just freeze
And become bigger than what you are
Have a surface
And much more depth beneath
Don't deprive
Just quench the thirst
When overwhelmed
Become a tsunami
Show your power and take the debris with you To hide it deep down and clean up the shore
Don't care
Just do your dance
Like a fall, like a wave
Like ripples , like rain
The eyes of the observers
Will take what they deserve
Don't accept the dirt
Just wash it off
Or let it settle
And come clean
Like you always were
Don't simmer
Just sparkle in sun
Just shine in the moonlight
Shine like the brightest diamond
And feel precious like you are one!
