The Dive
I dove into myself today
And fought the rising tide
Of apathy and ignorance
That I had once denied.
I swam on through my waves of thought
And explored these depths of mind
To give my world some clarity
Among the ill-defined.
I plunged myself into the flow
And embraced the inner me:
The good, the bad, the oh so sad;
The things I’d always be.
I pushed on through the waters deep
And came out the other side
With understanding of myself
To act as my new guide.
