Free

Drifting and sinking and sailing away
and the message in the sand is all that remains.
No anchor's quite heavy enough to cause me to stay
and all i can do is eagerly wait.
For a new day to come,
a new song to play,
the wind to push me to wander astray.
To walk the plank,
to take the plunge,
to dive into what lies amongst the unknown.
Burry my body and lay in the sun
and soak up the solace that anoints only one.
Paddle, and row, and stroke thru the sea
and hopefully end up where I'm finally free.

i remember feeling trapped, in every aspect imaginable... a desire for change and a need to leave
