Crashed my ship of hope on the jagged shores of reality

Shards of glass dance in the sunlight

Falling to the ground like an early morning snow

Peaceful and surreal waves receding in rhythmic sound

A mist of morning dew echoes the heartbeat of failing breath

Wrecked, unseen and never heard

Wrecked, sublime unwilling innate within my own

To many look to follow ,wind up and lead

To often we are welcome only if we leave

There is an urgency resonating through the foggy mist

Lights of red and yellow, blue and white

Wrecked my spirit unseen and never heard

Wrecked my car vehicle innate within my own

To many look yet follow ,wind up as yet to lead

To often we are welcome only if we leave

Obsessed ,I can not free myself

I have never been good at walking away

Time has proved how wrong I can be

Nothing has changed much ,even today
