Alone on the waves

Contributed by In_a_while on Tuesday, 26th July 2005 @ 01:18:15 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



who's alone on the waves with me?
or are the waves too high to see
anyone else who might be lost
on the sea where just few have crossed

splashing, smashing memories
it's so hard to stay afloat
i wish i'd see the end of these
these waves against my boat

are you there? do you despair?
have you felt the need for rescue?
where's the care? the warm soft air?
i wish land was in the next view

the water sure looks nice from here
i should swim deep into my thirst
and forever feel the fear
that i might never be the first...

...alone beneath the waves.

dW

excellent poem...i could use some rescuing myself so I guess that's why I liked these lines a lot:

"are you there? do you despair?
have you felt the need for rescue?"

keep up the great work

If i were to drown in your sea I would not be the last. As others would read to deep into boundaries were rescue is ignored.

I think every human at one time or another feels lost in the crashing waves of life. I feel we need to rescue ourselves and not wait for another to do it. No one understands our feelings of loss like we do. It is nice to see them standing on the proverbial shore waiting for us, but we have to swim into land on our own.
