Brackish

I don’t know how long can this bitter sweet 
Persist without getting hit
A reality to concede
To have this is to always bleed
As salmons swimming across 
To fresh from saline
Against currents
To find a spot, serene
Spawn and contribute
To the continuity of the species
A cycle with
No romantic back story
But the conflict starts
When the conflicted doubts
And give credence to deceit

Then it’s time to go back to tread the brackish water
A free-fall swim
