Climbing a palm tree <br />with a coconut braid <br />hanging your life on the line <br />climbing the ladder of a moving train <br />watching your dreams pass by <br />hanging your life out in the rain <br />hoping your troubles will dry <br />holding your wife through a tidal wave <br />hearing your neighbors die <br />out of the rubble, out of the pain <br />you’ve got to keep trying. <br /> <br />Dropping the keys down a garbage disposal <br />having to climb inside <br />running from a tornado <br />hearing your babies cry <br />not knowing what the future holds <br />when all your hopes are tried <br />and everything that you’ve been told <br />is a goblet full of lies. <br />Oh, you have to learn to let it go, <br />let the wild turkeys fly <br />and in your soul you will know <br />it’s gonna be alright. <br /> <br />When it feels like you can’t trust, <br />like you’re being played <br />when the worlds at its worst <br />the dragon can’t be tamed <br />you can’t go on, but you must <br />your whole life’s at stake <br />when you’ve just had enough <br />of this horrid place <br />you’ve got to be tough <br />the seasons will change <br />the road might be rough, <br />but it’s gonna be okay.<br /><br />Kelly Zion<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/it-s-gonna-be-okay/
