[hometext] => Like so many people I have had bad friendships.Each new one carries the same initial thoughts.
[bodytext] => As I swim close to the shore I am reminded of how I am swimming through life Sometimes it is easier to stay in the safety of the shallows I can put down my feet as the water isn't too deep I can keep you at a distance, my new found friend I can view you from the water's edge I may dip my toes just to see how it feels Is it safe to go further with this friendship ? I could swim a little further Allow myself to become almost submerged in you Soles of my feet still touching the sand Not yet ready to finally let go What kind of sea are you really ? Are you calm, serene, uplifting ? Will you let me rest my head on your shoulder Lay back and float in your warmth ? Or are you full of tricks? Will you let me think I am safe Only to realise you have a darker side to you Ready to pull me under ? I do not wish to fight you Do not wish to be tossed by your strong current I only want to swim with you Not drain all my energy wrestling against you There is only one way to discover you Kick out my legs and head further from the shore Now I am in your hands Do not let me drown.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
