and waves whisper verse
A Poem About Anxiety
Sometimes life becomes so overwhelming that we feel the need to escape. In this poem about anxiety, the ocean is seen as a place of respite and release. Don't we all need that at times? Don't we all need a place that's safe from negativity, anxiety, fear?
I have always turned to the sea in times of need. It is my solace, my comfort. It is there that I feel free.
This poem evokes that feeling of safety, seclusion, separateness from the rest of the world.
The Endless Sea
At times I'm fearful and want to hide from the world
Rolled into safekeeping like a sail furled
A port in the storm where I can take refuge
A hidden cove protected from life's deluge
Is there such a place where I can be free
Swept away from worry, care and anxiety?
In all of its vastness I turn to the sea
As wave upon wave washes over me
Like a mermaid I'd swim away from shore
Until I could not see land anymore
And stream through the depths where I will break free
As free as a mermaid in the endless sea
