Henry Xu // SEESAW

Life is like a seesaw,
Our journey is just like walking on the seesaw
From the bottom to the top side,
You begin with your first step on the seesaw.

Every step that you took,
It became more threatening,
The higher you grasp
The more intricate it is for balancing.

When you think yourself is progressing towards the top,
You realize you are falling,
Like a rollercoaster speeding down the tracks,
Towards the unknown.

Then you find out,
You cannot always reach the point that you want to reach,
Struggling back and forth numerous times,
You perceived the intricacy and started to screech.

However, you afterward become discerned,
That you realize standing at that peak,
Is the balance point of human life,
However, how would you streak?

There might be another method,
Where somebody is holding up the seesaw for you,
It might be your family or the people you love,
Or the enemies that you had successfully couped.
