Found

Who am I?
Lost for words I search the deep in the ocean
That is in front of me
For answers, blinded by waves
That crash overhead
Pulling me under

Deep is the chasm that I am held in
Far away am I from light
But hope is still found
In the last breaths I choke
As the waves grab at me
Down I am pulled

I realize my eyes
They are closed
For I have not seen
The light that breaks through the waves
Holding out sanctuary

A hand pulls me through-
The opening of doors
I peak into one by one
So many things to see!
He granted and provided

Lost once but found
Found and forever redeemed
By the one who was not pulled out of the storm
But came back and ultimately saved me
Forever in debt
He calls me home.

Feel inspired

Life is pretty tiring, at any angle survival is all anyone can hope for...  Just remember that life is a gift, undeserved and temporary.  Live your days with your dreams in consideration.  Sometimes I wonder if I'm actually writing to an audience or not... if any of you want to comment, let me know you're here reading this, that would motivate me to keep writing.

Drowning

I look inside
I see darkness
Lost thoughts flutter

Look toward the horizon 
Breathe in the last drops of sunshine
Colors blur and dissipate 
Into the darkness that surrounds us all

Holding the dreams in one
The aspired in the other
Crumbs fall from both

The breeze blows back my wonders
Holds me captive from the ground
I am lost.  I am alone.
I find myself drowning in
Nothing.  Nothing holds me under

The surface is finger tips away
To grab hold of anything
Is to break through the nothing
But I slowly sink
Back into the calmed waters

A faint memory
Could have never existed
But I see the crumbs
That once held the future
Dreams that shattered
Following me into the nothingness.
