The Road Less Traveled---"The tide comes in"
Current mood: hopeful
My life.......................
What else is there to say, nothing. One day i'm going to sit down and write my whole life story, just because i'm sure i'll remember a certain detail about it that i would have otherwise forgotten. Something that could one day be the difference between succeeding or failing, life or death. I want to write something serious right now, but i cannot find the inspiration to do so. Why can't I? Usually it comes to me like it's instinct. But not today........not on this day, Presidents day. Why am I still at school? I can't even understand that. I don't know where i was going with this, but it can only mean one thing. I need to ride to the beach, who's down? Or if nobody is fine, i'll go by myself. Sometimes being by yourself is better, it's easier to concentrate, easier to understand and cope with things. Maybe it would be best if i went alone, I could have all the time to say whatever needed to be said to myself, and think about whatever needed to be thought about.
-"The Tide comes in"-
Sitting on the cold, damp sand i run my hands back and over the border between the wet sand, and the dry. Gazing out onto the great ocean as the tide comes in. A shooting star waves the swells of the salty sea in towards my barefeet. I stretch my legs out just far enough to allow my toes to feel the kiss of the winter water. And in that moment I close my eyes and let everything fade......into darkness.......darkness......until there is nothing left but myself and the sea. My soulmate, or atleast a companion no doubt. She is always there when there is no one else I can tell. And as the tide strolls in along the beach, its whispers flow through the winds and into my ears. Telling me that everything is as it should be. And that i'm going to be fine. Soothing as it is i cannot stay as long as i'd like. I never can. Perhaps this is what breaks my heart the most. They say the ocean is always there, and it is. But it is not always reachable when we need it the most. The same is with people, they are always there, but we cannot always hold them, or have them hold us and tell us that everything is going to be fine. But in those moments when the tide walks in, that is when we can connect and hear the soft lullaby of the Ocean.
If you liked this, please tell me b/c there is a part two to this, it's called "the tide goes out" and this is all just off the top of my head, i'm probably going to revise these later. I just caught a spark of creativity as i was writing this blog.
