Adrift...

Thoughts turn,
the soul yearns,
the ache of life,
turmoil and strife...
What do you follow,
what stars guide your way?
Circumnavigate your world,
then let me hear what you have to say
It seems i'm forever struggling
to keep my head up above the waves
sometimes my lungs feel as if they'll burst
from so long holding my breath
till the next short gasp of salty air
before the next wave hits
sometimes the ship of my life is a schooner
and other times a wind tossed skiff...
