Dancing Tides

Hope hangs by a string, but it never dies completely. All your regrets are packed in the corner, all nice and neatly. Hiding away so that the world can't make a fool of you. Trying so hard not to do all that you're dying inside to do! It's like a wave washing up onto the beach, it's never ending. You hear the crash upon the shore as fake as when you are pretending. The light from above as you struggle below for air, is like a glimmer of trust in a game of truth and dare! And like the tide we retreat and then come crashing down again We are the dancing tides. We seek but never reach the end. Gathering our minds, trying to figure it all out. Hope, my old friend, looks like a twinkle of doubt. But then the break forms a crack that leads the way back to the dancing tides we love and like a wave we sway!
