some days the tide pulls

with too much force and power

my feet lose their grip

Kacy,
And that, friend, is why we are here...

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

What a surprise to see this one here again!
Arctic, you do spend a lot of time in the archives. Thanks for reading!
Hope you aren't ever caught in any 'riptides' metaphorical or otherwise.
