ahoy!

onepauly

all i have is this raft

on the ocean its so vast

the horizon shows nothing all around

i wish their were something to be found

the wind picking up and raindrops too

what am i supposed to do

the waves lapping at my side

looks like im in for a hell of a ride

holding on tight

then i see a light

in my bedroom i am grateful

          One heck of a way to wake up! You described that relieved feeling of waking up from a nightmare perfectly!

            THANK YOU FRED. THAT WAS ONE OF MY NEW POEMS. THEY ALL WILL BE FROM NOW ON. BUT ITS FAR FROM BEING EASY.

              If it would be easy, you probably wouldn't want to do it! 🙂

                The light is always there glad you found it before the darkness of the sea closed over you. Good write.

                  with just the raft and the water, I wondered how can I make a poem out of that.

                  hello , i like this , it sounds about someone who feels very lost and alone , the wind and the rain whilst being on the ocean all alone sounds kind of scary and how do we get out of that place with nobody around to help us get out .. nice piece of writing
