DELUSION

Attuned with the call of the waves
Lulling chants of the crossing wind
Pulling you down to sleep
Deep into the ocean bed.

Crossing the depth of the sea
Closing eyes to reality
Whispering courage and beholding lies
The unknown is not a boundary.

The silence is suddenly broken
By the shattering guttural cry
The stillness is disturbed
By that big fear coated with alibi.

And it knocks you up
When your eyes see the blinding light
You are in the seashore
The waves have not even reached your toes.
