Churning Seas

Answers I sought in a cold, lonely night,

My heart freezing with the morning dew.

The dreams dispersed by the candle light,

As was the innocence of my youth.



The birds flew north for the summer,

And I was stuck in the same place.

Tried to hold on, to be saner,

Keeping all under the surface.



But it was summer, hurricane season,

And a storm came churning the sea.

The fierce winds had their reasons,

And my emotions churned for me to see.



Broken trees and broken promises,

That’s what is left to be dealt with.

The lessons learned, the ones missed-

The wind brought up from underneath.
