Between The Waves
They keep coming one right after another
With just enough space in between to recover
For a brief moment it is pure tranquility
I try to collect myself but it’s total debility
Before I can get my feet on the ground
Another one sends me rolling around
Unexpected joy in this ephemeral space
Awaiting another to rise above my face
And while bobbing here out of control
There is a whisper to my yearning soul
Truth comes crashing into my open mind
This epiphany displays our daily grind
At that time another massive one rolls in
Turning me upside down once again
I push toward the surface spitting salty air
And laugh this time instead of despair
Then take in the grandeur of sight & sound
And oh what peace is increasingly found
Between the waves, Between the waves
