Hit & Miss

I never know the moment

When bad times will find me

How hard it will hit?

No warning from life

In an instance, Bam!

It beats me unexpectedly 

Uncertain if it will let me stand up

Or if it will let me catch my breathe 

All that’s left, is to wait for the next hit

Hoping that if I keep moving

The next one will miss me

Not waiting around for it

It will have to catch me 

A childish misconception

Life will always hit when it does 

We have no say in this

No way of avoiding it

Just take the hit

And pray you can get up
