Flood warning

Here comes the flood

The flood of tears and affection

The flood of real hurt and pain

Resembling the fear of drowning

Imagining the feeling of being pulled down

As though struggling is futile

As you realise only your heads above water

And that it’s inevitable that it will go under

And you can sense that suffocation

As you try to hold your breath

But in the end you can’t hold on any longer

And the flood of water you ingest

Can you picture this yet?

The flood washing powerfully over everything

Washing all that you’ve built away

Washing all your hopes away

So when you see the rain

Prepare for the floods coming your way again

Because its impossible to hold the waves at bay

Be wary of floods coming your way

Keep life dramas at bay

Choose carefully who you let in your life

So that your days sill be always sunny and bright.
