Towards and Away

Unfinished business, lost in between

I had a life and you took it away

I knew what i liked and what was right

I still had the will to fight

Now I am stuck in the tide

moving in and out again and again

the past is wiped away with every rising swell

Days pass and this is supposed to make me smile,make me well

Are my actions mine or do they belong to you?

Am I creating the life I want or the one that will ease my pain?

I can't tell if I am running toward my dreams or away from my fears

Or if I love or hate my tears

Moments of inspiration, moments of desperation

Days and days of frustration

I understand, things are not always what they seem

You have to learn to find acceptance in the paradox

dig in deep through all the hardened dirt and rocks

Find solace in the rocking of this push and pull

I never knew my heart was this big, that I could feel it from my head to my toes

Why does this gift feel so cruel?
