Yo-Yo

Yo-Yo

Life in my hand,
Hopes & dreams resting on my palm.
With a flick of the wrist, It flies on a single strand
Only to return like a bomb.
Two years, two whole years have gone by
Yet it seems a lot longer.
Prayers, wishes, friends & family
Surround my soul with love & laughter
With all the confusion & chaos
Drifting into darkness
Emotions wildly rushing crisscross
So much uncertainty  seems endless
It's easy to shrug it off
Sometimes even put on a show
But nobody understands my life's spinoff
At the end of it all, it comes down to pride & ego.
As I fall asleep, I dream that my yoyo breaks,
Only to wake up and find that my heart still aches...

I love this one a lot. It gives you "that" feeling, though I can't explain what that feeling is.
