Swimming Against the Waves

DSCF2028.JPG

Waves come rolling,
crashing me.
Mind is falling,
I feel free.

How to leave
a place like here?
Standing still
is met with fear.

Let it go
and don't look back.
Feel the flow,
your fears unpack.

Overwhelming, overjoyed-
every doubt in me destroyed.

note: when this happened it was actually super windy and (standing in the water) the waves went way above my head.. I didn't take pictures then.

What a nice quick poem to make you think. Thanks for sharing with us. I like the beach but never get there often enough. Im not a huge fan of waves though as got dumped one too many times.

Really nice @tripswithtam

Great job.
