Message From the Sea

Look out when you get the chance
Until you can’t see me past the horizon
On sunny days in quiet seasons
I sit in my car by the sidewalk
Glancing towards the infinite direction
Waiting for time to pass
Coming back to myself
Losing another moment to old habits
Each day is different
Some lessons have to be continually learned
Meeting myself with love, not shame
Watching the sea take itself out
Letting me know all the different versions
Of myself come back at different times
Reminding me of how far I’ve come
And inspiring me to share this with you
