Future is a weird thing it can be dark or bright
One minute everything is going up the next shut off like a light
Always doing the right thing on the straight and narrow path
Things take a turn and a different way I travel feeling the wrath
I’m very confused don’t know where I went wrong
Working on papers and grades next thing I know I’m playing beer pong
A plan I always had go to college become a teacher and help kids
Now I am in a new town wondering what to do fallen of the grids
Have to get back on track as soon as I can
Take a step back and rethink all of my plans
I know I can go up because I have been all the way down
As I open my eyes to see the day I realize I will swim and never drown

I would like to translate this poem
'.. I realize I will swim and never drown'. That is absolutely beautiful. It is a lifeline when you are down further than you ever thought you'd go and this realization hits you. Suddenly you know that no matter how bad things are and how ever much worse they become, you will walk in the sun again.
