Turmoil of life

 Look at my life, look at my choices
so much strife, so many demanding voices
head first we dive into the abyss of complexion
hoping not to hit rock bottom on our way down.

Look at my love, look at my chances
it’s never enough to just step the dances
the heart has it rough in these games of affection
try not to tear it till a balance is found.

The mess that is love is a pool of disaster
we go down the slide only faster and faster
one side is frozen, the other in flames
and balance precariously on the edge of the knife.

Look at what’s left after all has been said
what’s still alive after all has been bled
what’s still in play after paying your debt
but whatever is left will have to make do
cause there is no escape from the turmoil of life.
