Catamaran

They control me, hold me and crush me. Escape! Gotta go find a new land. Warm sun, watching me flee on the sea, in a beat up catamaran. Sea breeze pushes me along, to a place I do not know. A dolphin leaps, sleek and strong, living free, to just be and grow. The sunny day shifts into night. Deep darkness, oh pain of heart! Why did I flee? Why do we fight? Morning rays, a peaceful new start. It's ahead! Green dot in sparkling blue. I land, laying in the sand for days alone, only God to answer to. Not a sound but the crashing waves. I look and see the lush palm trees, with birds flying, singing so free, among dark shadows hiding mysteries, the Spirit calls me to come and see.
