I Stand Here

I Stand here
Here in the middle of ocean
Ocean of life
Life that is scary
Scared of failure 
Failure in growth 
Growth of achievements
Achievements that pulled higher 
Higher than the people
People who were once close
Close to the heart
Heart which broke
Broke by someone 
Someone who touched 
Touched my soul 
Soul which was safe
Safe as treasure
Treasure is now lost
Lost in this ocean
Ocean of life 
Life is here
Here I stand

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
