We are extraordinary species, bewildering in complexity;
Lives unique in experience, for we come from different societies.
Pain - reforming our minds to feel and relate to casualities;
Controlled by fear - the will to survive in this desert of human strife.

Life is an ocean, beautiful though tough;
It's hard to hold on when the tide is rough;
Not understanding its depth, breath or purpose;
Navigate! The thrills of life are adventurous.

Do not let the betrayal of the closest been behind the gun hunt you down;
Do not let fear of losing a loved one make you wear a frown;
The sea  will not always be calm, so the sun will not shine;
Yet the stars will align, days - things will be fine.

Be as brave as a lion, let your roars echo as waves crashing against rocks.
As sharp as an eagle, swift - yet for prey have claws locked.
Be a captain, calm - maneuvering his ship through the storm;
Confident! Grey clouds will eventually transform.

Dive into the sea of life looking at the bigger picture;
Worry not of the pain - it is part of life's structure;
Setbacks are meant to inspire growth in character;
Needed for one to sail through storms in life chapters.
