Lost (Searching)

The waves lapping gently

up against the shore,

continue to come, continue to go.

Looking in the distance,

Nothing is clear.

The emotions still raw,

the hurt still there.

With each step taken

the waves pull away.

Drifting further from reality

only coming back from the seas

foam to dive back in the waves

getting lost again.

Within the water I sink, hearing the faint sound of the waves crashing into the shore at time of the tide.

Arising from the water, I wander the back into the horizon of the dunes.

Forgetting about everything.

Forgetting about purpose,

Forgetting about care.

Forgetting about the pain

that's always there.

Glancing at the waves, I realize why am walking,

I'm lost, like the waves that drift

farther into the sea.

Just like them I'm constantly moving,

searching for something to believe in, searching for something

to make me stay.

Lost within the sea and waves

searching for myself

among everything.
