Float On Vianca Morales

It’s always sunny in this internal world even when it rains. Darkness lurks every step, every turn though this light remains the same. Light or dark, I can’t differentiate. Truthfully, society is still blinded it’s all just different shades of gray. To give or to not give a damn? But what truly is a damn? Contradictions all on this Earth new ones still unheard. To understand it all is to grasp the concept of nothing. Because there is always conceptually something. Happy people are deceiving themselves. The sad, denying themselves life. The angry, misunderstood. The numb forgetting feeling. What is perfection? I wonder what is really right and wrong. What is truly poor and whether the wealthy are really rich. Controversial issues will never be solved. People always deciding other peoples’ fate. Life just works that way. So I float on. Grade 10 Riverside High School
