The Ocean
The ocean mist on my face
Wind blowing through my hair
I feel the water as it envelopes me
Washing away all the pain
The water rushes around me
Soothing and comforting
Rushing to my rescue
Cleansing me of all my troubles
The sound of waves
The birds flying by
Dipping down into the water
Rising up and rushing off
The pain of the past
The uncertainty of the future
The turmoil of today
I pray for peace
Where is my god?
Is he here?
I pray but I feel no relief
I continue to have hope
