Set Sail

Been out sailing 

floating

drifting 

into the wind 

as the moon is setting

had a direction 

a map, a compass, a destination

determination

through storms arrived but returned to the sea

solid shore couldn't hold me

couldn't satisfy me

Set sail to the west with no one place in mind this time

sailed on the wind

now look where I am

lost in the ocean's blue endlessness

accompanied only by my own restlessness

Restlessness

Restlessness

Putting out this sail again and waiting for the wind

my only friend

trusting

Trusting.

She will know and take me where I ought to go

may she blow

may she blow blow 

Blow wind blow

She carries me away 

as the sunrise 

brings a new day 

a new day 

a new day
