When you are in control

Time flows by me like a river,
and I try my best to make sense,
of all the things I can ponder,
to all the thing I can barely glance.

I do agree it is beautiful,
all the array of colors,
but sometimes it's more than a mouthful,
...

Oh man,
I can't write nuthing...
Mind drawing blanks...

'If'

'If'

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools;

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a man, my son!

Rudyard Kipling

The lightning

We were born in the darkness,
And saw nothing around us,
We did not care for what is out there,
For we did not know anything existed.

Then came the lightning,
For a brief moment there was light,
We saw ourselves, where we are, and what we could be,
We saw hope and we saw opportunity.

Then as soon as it came it disappeared,
And we plummeted again into the darkness,
But our heart never did,
For in that brief moment it has changed.

For that brief moment we saw the future,
For that brief moment we had relief,
For that brief moment we were happy,
For that brief moment we learned to hope.

And so the darkness brought despair,
And with it loneliness,
For finally we couldn't bear,
Being in the darkness.

A life pass by

I see a life pass by,
dragging by the hour,
and isn't funny he complains,
he has no time.

Thinking of nothing

Thinking of nothing is so hard to do,
With all the things I'm going through,
mygosscon, fuesb and st too,

To dream

I have a dream,
But that dream is so far away...

Waking from slumber

The giant is slowly waking up,
the threat is looming great,
in it's shadow fear shall reign.
