change and tension

Every time you turn around
there is change and tension
and anxiety, panic and fear
the two seem to date each other
You've seen the abyss before
today You will find yourself
staring over the precipice again
But the change some fear
The opening of new dangers
known, uncertain and unknown
hold the promise of your future
hope would not exist
were it not for despair
If I could be there to listen
and to give unsolicited advice
from someone who has nothing
worthwhile or otherwise to give
from one who has seen panic's color
it seems like every day of my life
and especially, well you fill it in
i could only tell you
what you already know
that the future is all you have
the uncertainties you face
give your life zest and cool
not drudgery or the same thing
over and over again for you
but the unique which you get
because of the unique that is you
