Out To Sea

Some days I float on a crystalline sea
Bobbing in a liquid bed of spirit and emotion
Rocked in the arms of a vast mother
Whose ebb and flow mirrors my own
Hearing my heartbeat in each crash
In each wave plummeting toward shore
Reaching, reaching, reaching
Enveloping the sands of time
Cloaked in the night and guided by stars
I swim out to the moonlit deep
I trust the guiding force of the universe
My legs are strong
I am no longer afraid
Goodbye land
​You've taught me what I needed to know
