~Secrets~

secrets in the sand
still warm from the days sunshine
cradle my thoughts
soak up my tears
secret place here in the sand
tiny ocean swallows me
protecting me from the fight
washing the pain
salting the wounds one last time
seasoning me with the knowledge
to escape,...the night
the life I found myself enveloped in
secrets in the sand
chasing chill
chasing you
resting at the crest of a gentle wave
curling up the shore to my toes
bringing peace,...bringing strength
to bitter thoughts
bringing me to better places
to a safe haven
to a freedom
to a dream.

~Mmmm....yes it does.  There's still a pull there but when I experience the forward motion of it....it feels wonderful.  It feels amazing to have made it there,...like a release from chains that weighed me down.

This is great kid. To reach a place as now for you.
Take care.
