I write hundreds of poems that are too personal to ever see the light of day, but I felt like sharing this one. I am certainly no poet, but the significance of this poem is the story of my life.
As I soak up the day's yellow lace, I contemplate...
Navigate the ship of my past.
Differentiate between the right turns I made
and the rocky waters I sailed due to getting off course.
I spectate it wasn't just the wind
that caused the ship to be lost at sea.
The ship sails, lonely, in the dark...
battered by the wind and waves.
A map saves. A map saves.
A map can show the ship the way
back to land and grass at last.
No longer lost at sea.
