Life's waves

       Life's Waves  

     Swept out to sea 

       by thoughts and fears,

    lost and alone

    swimming in tears

      The scent of wild roses

       the sound of wind in the grass,

     becomes a faint memory 

   of the distant past

Waves come crashing in
sending shivers to the core,
the person I once used to be
I no longer recognize anymore

Exhausted and struggling
i'm pulled underneath,
then thrust in the air
waves under my feet

Catching the waves
all becomes clear,
sometimes you have to fall
to discover why were here

Trying to control life's waves
will end in disaster,
learn to surf them instead
and become their master
