Time passes
as i walk amidst the morning tides
i find myself stranded by the retreating tide
i tried to keep up
but failed
then i found myself lowly as can be when i suddenly felt my body slipping away
bit by bit it felt as though i was getting sucked into the sand
become part it.
the next thing i knew i found myself
in a pool of water left behind by the abandoning sea
a pool so small yet so big.
a pool which i will never wanna leave
for it is now my refuge from
the home that left me.
i love my new home.
it's really comfy.
though ppl are always watching me
some laughin at me.
some pitying me
some just wondering what the hell i'm doing here.
some just think i've been left behind
but as the tide comes in and out
i remain here
i feel safe here.
i don't want to go back to the ocean
where violence is all around
where every second someone is being slaughtered
by another.
it's scary
i've been running for years
trying not be slaughtered
and now i finally found my place
which came at a cost of a near death experience
i glad i had that experience
i glad i stepped out of that ocean
which i thought was my comfort zone
it's scary i tell u
but look what i found.
new friends from around the world
whom i bring joy to.
and a whole new aspect of life.
i wanna stay in this pool
till the day comes when the tide is strong
and the ocean calls me back..
