Life's little lessons...

I knew it would be a solo trip,
But I wanted to see how far I could swim.
I wanted to know the ocean,
But I knew there was only so much I could explore alone.
I saw as much as my single soul could see.
Even when the waters became turbulent,
I swam.
I did not fear becoming lost,
In my struggle with the waves I found myself.
I am not afraid to die,
Since, I am not afraid to live.
I only came back to shore when I realized I would rather drown in someone’s heart than sink in isolation of cold and loneliness.
