I stand at the rail and look out at the sea
But all that I see is a reflection of me
The wind whips the waves, they churn and they roil
Reflecting the state of my inner turmoil
My hopes, my fears, the what’s meant to be?
All there to be seen in immersive 3D
But beneath the surface it’s calm and its still
Soothing and quiet and completely tranquil
The raging above means nothing at all
I listen to my breath, the rise and the fall
Of my chest as I stand there, transported away
Beneath the ocean, away from the fray
Into that place that I love to be
Where the world and it’s worries mean little to me
I return to the rail my thoughts clear and true
With a smile on my face I admire the view.
