No matter how long you wait, if you stay in one place, things will change around you but you’ll be forced to stay the same.
And fish cant live out of water.

Trying to fly and swearing he would not be as fragile as they say, he broke into pieces as he hit the ground,
And proved them right
What a life.
His pieces blew away after, he only made it halfway through his life.
And yet if he could still speak from whatever life lays ahead, he’d say that he was satisfied by the weight that left, knowing it didn’t matter
Not anymore

She could still see if she saw with someone else’s eyes, and he could still be what everyone told him he couldn’t and she tried to bleed even if she couldn’t stop.
And he still tried to scream even when his voice didn’t work.
Tiny tiny pieces that mean nothing, crush the world with their immensity.
Because they’ll just try harder
To be giants
Crumbling everything.

If you do not yield you will not fall…in vain
If you stand brave you will not be harmed…in cowardly ways.
Truth is you will fall every time you try to fly, and there will be many times when life passes you by.
All of the flowers always die.
But some pedals get closer to reaching the sky, while some just get stuck in the after.
Where the pieces are as small as they seam to be.

There are a few things that are crucial in life….
Waiting for something to come your way will do nothing for your future…
And sometimes fish can live out of water…longer than others
But never forever….
Because there are boundaries…you see
And some times no matter how hard you try
They will never be broken… [comments] => 1 [counter] => 163 [topic] => 13 [informant] => ForeverAndADay [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Nice write. It's true. There are many things that can be accomplished in life, but there are even more things that can't be accomplished in life. In reality it just depends on the person. One person may have a different boundary line than another person. Some people are just incapable of doing things. People need to relize that at certain times. Still... there are boundary lines for all of life. Some boundaries cannot be broken no matter who you are and what you do. I don' know how the hell you were able to explain that, but it was very good. Nice examples and everything... especially with the fish.
