The Ship

Beautifully made

And wonderfully created

The greatest ship sailing the seas

Across many different waters

This ship shall continue to sail

Even though its unknown of the path it continues to seek

It sails through the moon and the sunlight

It also sails through the rain

Always staying strong and firm

So beautifully and wonderfully made

There is always a fear that it will sink

But this fear holds the ship back none

For life is full of chances 

Positive and negative ones

And the only time the negative things affect you

Is when you give them a chance

For if you don't let negativity in

You will continue to sail

See people are a lot like ships

They change direction sometimes with the wind

But usually when they are in a determined path

They do whatever it takes

Whatever it takes to let them get there

Whatever it takes to make sure everyone is safe

Sailing smoothly through life

And encountering thunderstorms along the way

But all in all they survive it all

Because of their will to live

However sometimes people let negative thoughts conjure within their head

And these negative thoughts become a part of you

And they open you up to the world

And then you let the words of others flow through you like water from that sea would

And then you become heavy

So heavy you begin to sink

And at that moment you are panicking

But you try to fix the leak

For people are just like ships you know

Beautifully and wonderfully made

They are constantly something negative around

Like the water to the ship in the sea

But an entire body of water can't sink a ship

unless water gets inside

And when that water slowly creeps in 

you can usually find a fix in time

But if you don't fix it soon

And let the negatives fester and swell

The water will continue to gather

And your ship will soon sink instead of sail

But at the end of the day I just want you to know

That no matter what you go through

Negativity in this world can only bring you down 

If you allow it inside of you

Sure it can  surround you at times

But you can and must prevail

Be the ship that sails the seas through the sunny days and the storms

And don't let the negatives in life bother you

Don't let the wind constantly sway you too

For you are the ship  that is sailing through life

so to your path, always stay true

And don't dwell on all the negatives constantly coming your way

Just continue on with your life

For you shall sail another day
