Waves
Write a poem
Waves
I don’t know where I’m going
Or where I’ve been
Or who I am
I think I’ve gotten lost
Somewhere between the safety of home
And wherever I’ve ended up
I can’t seem to remember
What my original plan was
Where was I going?
Maybe I didn’t have a plan
Maybe I just wanted to run
All I can do now
Is hope the waves
Will carry me safely to shore
So I can start again
And maybe I’ll just run right back
Maybe I just want to live
Lost in the waves
With no purpose
With nothing to do
With no one I have to please
Maybe for once,
I just want to live for myself
In a place they will never find me
The waves will keep me safe
But somehow,
They always bring me back home
