What A Stoplight Really Is

If life were just a road
And nothing more
You would be a stoplight.

Telling me when
And where to go
Guiding me to fate

If life were just an empty tank
And I was a lonesome fish
You would be the water

Letting me reach my limits
And pushing me
To break the glass

If life were just an apple tree
That can bear such tasteful fruit
You would be the leaves

Collectiong sun that feeds to me
Through the roots, your gift travels
Giving my fruit its color

If life were just a road
And nothing more
You would be a stoplight

Shining down on me
