My Search
This morning I sat upon the sand gazing at the sea...
Watching the waves as they roared, like thunder they seemed to threatened me.
I didn't move, I didn't flinch, I just sat alone.
Nothing in the world seemed to matter right now this was my moment.
No matter how hard I looked I couldn't really see...
There was truth inside those waves of anger, they told me I was blind.
So then I sat upon the grass gazing at the sky...
Watching and waited as the sun set and the darkness started to rise.
Nothing in my view could be any clearer and yet I still could not see...
Every moment passing, it all changed around me...
Was there something I should have saw or was it just to alien and I'd never understand if I had some flaw.
So I got up and walked home, watching my journey within time.
Tho nothing I did this day made sense and I wondered why...
No amount of looking out could help me look within.
So its any wonder why I found hard to begin.
I chose to remain hidden from then, lost from view...
But in truth that wasn't going to help because I always knew...
