Sometimes

Sometimes the wind blows backwards And life is a mast wobbling to and fro Sometimes the wind blows forward And your sails proceeds as it should go

Sometimes the candles flicker out And life is many moments in the dark Sometimes the light shines on And life is a contrast much too stark

Sometimes life is a party on the docks Until your ship sets sail all alone Sometimes you’re bobbing from sea to sea Reminding you you’re on your own
