As tides rise and fall
Snoring ambitions wake stiffly
Smashed against the mattress of struggle
And yawned into oblivion
As the filed knife of worry
Chops off the head of courage

As tides rise and fall
Uncertainties like swarthy demons
loom
With their soft hairy hands
Trickling fear down spines
Effacing twinkling stars
As darkness on roofs, settles

As tides rise and fall
Many gallop from defeat to defeat
Broken spirits sweat
As stars furrow into scars
And like possessed wayfarers
They shuttle courageously
Only to harvest hefty disappointments

As tides rise and fall
We must remain calm
Drag along our jaggy feet
with precision
Despise the vicious pebbles of worry
And be firm like altar wines
Tasting many summers in one glass
