I Am (Throwback Thursday poetry from 2001)
I am once again the ocean
Restlessly pounding the reef bound shores
Cold water floating in the surface
Boiling undercurrents, waiting…
My salty expressions grow bigger
Wildly, yet gracefully
I fold within myself
Crashing against the rocks
Torn by my instability
I am without cause
Wondering aimlessly across the horizon
Selfishly perhaps, ignoring the rest of the world
I am,
But nobody seems to notice
