A drifting life at the edge of my fingers...

It's all right to let go right now
Let me flow away.
I can see no light in this deepening abyss
Seeming like time has left me today.
It is all just passing by
Like a tidal wave.
Never slowing, never relaxing
so I guess I just have to try to
ride the wave.
Where is this journey taking me?
It swept me off my feet.
And now I am floating away
thinking something might be directing me
the wrong way.
All I can see is the endless blue sea
the horizon looks so far away.
I reach out towards it
straining to touch the sinking sun
but all my fingers touch is the air
while my life continues on.

"Time" by Pink floyd. A song about this...sort of. "...Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown, waiting for someone or something to show you the way...//and then one day you find ten years got behind you, no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun..."
That was the first thing that popped in my head while I read this.
This was a pleasure to read.
Thanks for sharing... |

It made me reflect on life too, reading this.
As a child we have innocence and a curious mind.
As teenagers we have aspirations and dreams.
When we get older, we wonder where it all went and why it went so quickly.
You summed it up well.
