Life is a book
With many chapters
No matter
How dark it is around us
Theres always
A new
Chapter that promises
Change and opportunity
Changes are like
A dangerous flood
They pull us
Away from
The usual shore
Push us heavily
Back into the depths
Of our pasts
And our misery

Tidals are
Like never ending waves
Over and over
They throw us
Back to where We've been
To our
Fails and insecurities ...
