Crashing waves break; calling
Over and over taunting me
A sea-spray of emotions tumbling
As I ebb and flow on the shoreline
Torn this way and that, blinded
By time, black clouds scudding
As tears prickle my eyes
Sadness overwhelms me
Fresh rain on asphalt sizzles
Through my brain like fire
And mystical dancers pirouette
On the knife-edge of my life
Cigarette butt stubbed and heart heavy
I wander aimlessly staring out at the ocean
Pulling me like a magnet
Will I do the right thing?
