Twists and Turns

Life has twists
and it has turns
but every now and again
someone out there yearns

for freedom
or for the life
that disconnects
all those pointy knives

the more you listen
the less you actually say
the more you learn
the more your emotions pay

to understand
to really know
just slow down
then everything will show

all those stresses
all those strides
when listening alone
to your own crazy mind

will have their own story
will decide their own end
everything in life
makes their own crazy friends
