Thoughts Hovering Cloudy

Standing on the shore beneath the crest of an incoming wave
Not bothering to take shelter or seek safe haven
Not bracing for the impact of the water crashing down
Because it’s just some peace and quiet that I'm craving
The pain, the frustration, the hassle, the hurt
The evils I came to escape
Have returned and returned with assault and assault
And no help comes to my cries of “rape”
Standing on the shore beneath the crest of an incoming wave
Is this anguish all part of some scheme?
The shore of the beach was relaxing and pure
Have I been in prison and the beach was a dream?
A breeze flows through a window crowded by bars of satin and steel
Metaphorical in nature, of course
The wave takes shape and stalls in the sky
Above my head, awaiting signs of remorse
And I look back on my life and the choices I’ve made
Re-examine my moments of fear
Take stock of the times I was heroic and brave
Plead my case to the judge in the mirror
Standing on the shore beneath the crest of an incoming wave
And standing ready for the water to fall
The shore, a cell, makes no difference in the end
It’s just how you perceived it all.

I find your style intruging to say the least. I have stumbled upon your site from Serena Joy who I know through my dear friend Charlie.
I do hope to return and read more of your creations.
Thanks

Thank you. I have always just enjoyed writing poems. Don't know how good they are in terms of "Poetry", but I have no choice. They pop in my head and will not leave until i get them out.

Charlie? That is the main character in my story. I hope your Charlie is nothing like the one in my tale.

Nice to meet you. Hope to see you again soon =D
