No Destination

With my heart in my hand I hit the road Not all that wiser yet another year old I don’t always believe all that I’m told No destination as the journey unfolds. The sky is so blue and it melts into the sea The rhythm of the waves sound like music to me They crash on the rocks and then retreat The constant battle between where the land and sea meet. I take off my shoes and feel the warmth of the sand I drift off to thoughts of a far away land The people are talking but I can’t understand A sea gull walks over to the place where I stand. So much beauty I can’t take it all in I follow my tracks to see where to begin I think that it is time to either sink or swim So I take off my shirt and just jump in. The water is cold yet I feel so alive I submerge myself through a wave I dive I come back up on the other side The waves provide a pretty good ride. I get out of the water the sun warms my soul Often I feel like I swim in a fish bowl Going in circles but never getting anywhere I am just try to reach here from there. The sun goes down and then disappears I seem to have lost all of my fears I turn to leave and the ocean seems to wave It seems like my spirit is what it shall save.
