Grain of Sand

It's the ocean's sea surging from rip tide to steady, regardless our world ignoring ideas. The elusive thought creates ripples reaching out further discovering nothing ---- ---- ---- Why do we need post emphasizing that we must love, understand, and forgive? Then see someone struggling while quietly murmuring, better you than me ---- ---- ---- Seems like a loner realizes first, a simple grain could be unique. Even when surrounded by judgement whispered from people lying who pretend to be your friend ---- ---- ---- Conform like others choke on sand fitting in, some rely on convenient for comfort of safety in numbers. When ones that are alone become independent not lost ---- ---- ---- Positively empty yes, uncomfortable I admit divulge in emotion distracting self-defeat. Believe in hope acknowledge self worth I want someone close yet can't trust anyone
