Names and faces,
People, places–
The waves of confusion
Lap at my feet
On the sandy beaches
Of aloneness.
Bustling, hurrying,
Running, racing,
On the shores
Of the sea of fate
Pointing, showing
Guiding, luring,
Looking for something
That isn’t there
Discovering life
Like a shell in the sand
To be kept
Or cast away
Into the sea.
