Blink Of Life

Verse 1
The sky has its day, blinking lighting and roaring down thunder
to remind us that even though our days may seem grim
We have to try our best to allow peace of mind in
As I see the finish line so near and clear
I’m unable to cross as obstacles surprise me on my way there
accompanied by a reflex to blink as I hope for the outcome to become a win
but I’m just a man if I make bad decisions I understand there’s
No time to regret or change outcomes just for me
to finish faster to my path
Verse 2
Therefore, I’ll sit here not wanting to blink wishing to forever daydream
so you can notice the tears in my eyes swim
Half of the day has passed, the time to open doors is now
realizing it’s locked by unfinished prerequisites so I’m unable to access a move forward
Leaving a three – year community became a blur
remembering simpler times as I blink seeing myself now held hostage in a new institute
but I’ll never fret or sympathize for myself
because I’ll stamp my accomplishments
over my shortcomings
The pressure to finish on time loomed over my conscience
all my efforts were never flawless but I’ve always been very detailed
as I write down my last collaborative synopsis for now
Verse 3
You have to live through adversity to feel it
if not you wouldn’t get it or understand
why I see all these dilemmas form into a roadblock
The break is over a new beginning inevitably occurs as I find
the surge to write every stanza with purpose
Even though I’m temporarily withdrawn from the war
I’ll always remain a stanza soldier© finding the relentless strength
to stare down pages and salute it with an objective to finish a mission
Certain actions are involuntary such as a blink
So always remain cautious and ready for unforeseen circumstances
With every blink the situation
regains focus so the big picture is clearer
for me to find alternative outlets as I adjust to make my reintroduction
to a situation I left
I once befriended a girl before tested would start to doubt herself
Even though smart and pretty her mind was crowded with negative results as I studied her psyche
passing on by as I blinked to the next thought of possibly not seeing her again
but hey all I know is that I’ll try my best to
see another day as I blink adapting to a soaring sunrise
for it’ll be no surprise that I’ll return
to a place where I’ll keep on blinking but will stay alert this time
