Life is a balance of work and play.
A constant balance between night and day.
The balance between good and bad.
A balance between happy and sad.
Friends and family, pets and the lawn 24/7,
your whole life long.
Then one day in the middle of the night,
You're thrown off balance, nothing seems right.
What once was, is no longer the norm.
You're left in turmoil in the eye of a storm.
You struggle to regain control in your life.
To make sense again, turn wrong into right.
To define the person you are now.
To make it through life, some way, some how.
On auto pilot you just fly along.
Hoping to catch a breeze, to give words to your song.
Then in the future the scales line up again BEWARE!
It's just an illusion, my friend.
