learning to swim

monday 21st january 2002 @ 00:27

you put me on anchor watch and i am still here, waiting. the power of the sea fills me with energy but the land lies the same. if i swam away now would your ship sink? would we both be dragged by this persistant tide?

i could rest weary on a rock of ages and wait for the sun to set, but i don't know which way to look. the clarity of morning will make me a fool. i will learn to swim.
