Drowning

 I was a ship at sea

Choosing my own way
Drifting ever aimlessly

Both night and day
My course was uncertain
I faced the storms alone

Fought the wind, waves and rain
Wishing, wanting a place to call home


As the storms raged on
The clouds thick and dark
I had drifted so far gone
No hope for a new start


As I began to sink
My strength had been expelled
Can't go on I thought
Too long on my own I have dwelled


When at the end I was sure
I saw a brilliant light
It was majestic and pure
The most beautiful sight


With what strength remained
To the light I did turn
Lost, broken and ashamed
Knowing it would always burn


But when I was near it grabbing it firmly
Without giving me a chance
It vanished completely
Leaving me aimlessly


The light I speak of
Not a bulb or flame
But my guy’s Love
No other is the same
