Lost at Sea

Tell me
please tell me
if can you see...
I mean really see
with your eyes closed
beyond the horizon
where no one goes.
Can you see?
Now explain to me
not in words
but with feelings of emotion
deeper than thoughts
what it is that I see.....
for I am lost
on the sea of feelings
driven by winds over the waves
in a direction not charted by me
but some irresistible force within
Can you feel it...
pulling
tugging
driving us onward
out to sea?
Come sail my ship of emotions
on the Sea of Feelings
finding the way together.

Robert you have a nack for using few words to express great emotion. I wish I had that talent.

In this poem I see far feelings, I hear heart beats.

the sea is a perfect medium to express so many feelings....is it strange that I am fearful of water?? I would die if I had to swim in the ocean.

The Sea of Feelings, the one and true place
where each of us ends up in gaze.
