Lillian is hosting ~~ high time/tide for 'Poetics' in the dVerse Poets Pub!
The ocean calls me, vast and deep
pulling me close, pushing me away
its waves crash with the voice of thunder
reminding me of all that I fear ~~
depths unknown, currents unseen
darkness that swallows.
Swells rise, threaten to pull me under
I stand at the shore, toes sinking in the sand
silent edge where fear meets courage.
Water's touch teases my skin
a shiver of hesitation
but also a whisper ~~
Dare to step in .. dare to step in.
