wave of sorrow
I found this poem by Langston Hughes in my English book the other day and I was drawn to it.Island ~
Wave of Sorrow,
Do not drown me now:
I see the Island
Still ahead somehow.
I see the Island
And its sands are fair:
Wave of Sorrow,
Take me there.
Something as simple as that poem opens a wave of emotions that preys on my little soul. I have such a hard time coming to grips with reality, and that's frightening. Somedays I wish things were better for me....others I just awake to a reality that makes my eyes wander and my feet to stumble. Love can be such a hassle, especially if it never works out for you. Like the poem, I do see that Island, but I can't seem to reach it, no matter how hard I try. I'll just ride this wave for a little while and see where it takes me.
