Just like water
I can be your best friend
Or your worst enemy.
When treated respectfully,
There's nothing I won't do for you
I will fight for and with you
As long as you're right
But cross me the wrong way,
I will overflow my banks,
Water board you and make
Your life a living hell.
No dam you build will stop me,
You’ll never be out of my reach.
If I ever have to go this route,
It will be with good reason
And when you stop, I’ll stop.
But trust and believe that
I’ll do everything in my power
To first walk away,
And pray for help from above.
I prefer to be non confrontational.
Just like water, I’ll take
The least restrictive route.
Because I know how hurtful
My tongue can be.
I pray no one will ever see
That horrible side of me.
I’m a firm believer in karma,
And that you reap what you sow.
I strongly encourage living
By the golden rule.
There’s nothing I won’t say
To or about anyone else
That I’m not willing to say
To or about myself.
I believe in respecting others
And expect the same in return.
If you don’t like me or
Something about me just say so,
It’s absolutely fine.
Everyone’s entitled to their opinion,
We can work the issue out together,
Or you can deal with it on your own.
But know I won’t be taken for a fool.
We all have our ups and downs
As much as we all have to coexist.
I will consider us as equal in life
As we are in death.
Until your actions dictate otherwise,
We’ll get along just fine
Living life the way it was intended,
Just like water.
