Playing with the fire of a soul

Sometimes man does not know what they do,

All we do is search for our pots of gold at the end of the rainbow.

We do not realize all the heavy winds and rains we must endure while looking for said pot.

Once we get to the end what do we end up finding instead,

More storms.

 

Its a path we all walk at all times and there is no way to escape.

Its a routine etched into our daily lives it does not seem apparent,

Yet we do it with out missing a beat.

We can only hope that rain will stop beating us down leaving us cold and weary,

and the sun will come out and warm our souls and give us the strength to carry on.

 

We want to believe that there is an end to this and the rain will disappear forever,

However we always think it wont.

Its a rabbit hole we will continue to fall down into unless you do something about it.

If you do not draw a line on whats making it rain and say enough is enough,

Your going to need a really big umbrella because it will never get better.

 

Stop playing with the fire of your soul,

All you are doing is keeping it extinguished instead of letting it flourish.

Is this the life we want to live or is there more we want but can not draw the line

Between enough and too much as not to cross the line?

Yes you can, I am but its a tough road to travel its not easy

So do not expect it to be because you will set yourself up for failure.

Unfortunately we are programmed for failure and its time to break the mold.
