Adrift Poem by Leslie Montano

Adrift



When I'm lost in the sea of chaos
With only my voice as a paddle
My body the boat
I'll give it my best

Hunger lingering
Starving for attention and adventure,
I still paddle

For the hope of lost land
Of lost hope
The return of myself

But my paddles are breaking
I'm sinking

How long must I go
For my salvation
For myself
