Washed Away With The Tides

I am young
With the fallen snow
The spring saplings

A tadpole
The world full of brethren like me
But old life is wiser than thy

Last to food
Last to rest
But against the tides
Last to die
I will survive.

The need for breaking expectations
Has me here
Mostly luck
Got me here

This cramped world
Is no longer new
Where has wonder gone?

Fresh snow fell
New saplings sprouted
I am stale

Life anew came about
I would be washed away

I saw the last tadpole struggling
With fire in their movements
Down came hope from above
From me

Never to know what happened
I settled
A cool rain inside of me
And so,
I was washed away with the tides
