Waves wash across a restless mind.
Thoughts drift on a sea of uncertainty;
driftwood bobbing under the inquiring
gaze of dawn's soul seeking Sun.
The multi-coloured hues of a vibrant personality fade
by midmorning to monochrome, as the relentless
eye in the sky performs its duty.
And these dreams and desires blacken at midday.
Sinking beneath the choppy waters they fall
to the floor below; and are reunited
with the wreck of their owner's wasted life.
