Direction

Another late night adventure of my mind

Do you ever stare at the ocean

It's seeming aimlessness

It's desire to reach a destination

A destination unknown

It doesn't know where it goes

but every day sets out a course

and it goes and it goes

back and forth it goes

not worrying about the day before

or about the day after

You might stop it ask it where it goes

and all it says is i must go

so back and forth it goes

Sometimes it cannot go

as the day wears down its insistence to go

so it waits, waits for a time when it can go

and then it goes

with the moon it goes

as if found new energy with moon 

it has the energy to go

So you ask it once again where it goes

and all it says is I must go

and you sit there with the ocean

hoping you can also go

grab a tide and you can go

but you know you can't go where it goes

so you sit and wait for your moon to make you go.

Hello, I really like the very even and rolling flow of this. There is a continuity that seems both free and calculated. An all round excellent piece.
