Life is a shark and we are all swimming in an ocean of oblivion
Prying on each others fears
Feasting on one another
And not knowing when we will finally be swallowed up
Or given a bite to end it all
Shallow waters are warm
Yet we swim to the depths hunting for treasure
Soon the pressure suffocates us
But we are greedy and undeterred
Constantly seeking
Feeding on others
Swimming in a sea of uncertainty
Where nothing is promised
And we are only as good as the moment we live in
And then the shark finally takes the bite
Our lights go out
And we wonder what all that swimming was for
