Or Maybe

Life is like a journey

Like a bike 

Like a boat

You can walk

You can run

You can sit

You can float

Or maybe you’re lost

Or you crash

Or you sink

Or you drown

Or you fall

On the cold ice rink

To live is to stay

To continue

To know

You can build

You can buy

You can go

With the flow

Or maybe you move

Or you stop

Or you try

Or you’re rigid 

Or you’re cold

Or you continue to lie 

To die is to part

To say bye

To go on 

You can cry

You can weep

You can shout

You can long

From the journey 

From the start

From the dream 

Till the end

Do we part

Do we go

Do we finally redeem
