Bumpy Ride

Do I fold this page

Or crumple and throw it away

Do I keep it safe

In hope for better days

Or do I tear it up

And restart this stuff

Of course this is just a metaphor

I always Strive for more

But I don't know when to stop

When is it time to give up

When do I start a new chapter

When do I end the books

This poem will be quite short

We both know how this works

They say one door closes

As another one opens

How does this apply

When I'm sitting in an ocean

No doors on anywhere in sight

None closed or open

Stuck in this bumpy ride

I tell myself I'll hold on just one more night

Hoping I can see the sunlight just one more time
