The roaring sea
The calm sea
High tide
Low tide
Waves crashing fiercely
Waves flowing on the sand
The beauty and danger of the sea
The beauty and danger of my mind
How dangerous the waves of depression,
How dangerous the waves of regret,
How dangerous the waves of emptiness,
How dangerous they all can be
So fierce that I tumble in the waves,
Over and over again
Until I don't
I'm left on the shore
Gasping for breath
Waiting for my mind to clear, to calm
Once I am recovered,
The lull of the waves
Leave me in a trance
Pulling me back into the cold, rough embrace
Making me breathless from the cold
Shivering with no hope of warmth
Always cold,
Always overwhelmed by the waves
Trying to stay afloat
Never giving up
