Losing Myself Brought Me Here

You say that it seems like

I have the strength

of tall ocean waves.

But what you do not know

is that I am holding back

what feels like

ocean waves,

You may feel the most lost

in a place that should

feel like home.

You may feel the most at home

in a place you barely know.

The thing I fear the most

is not getting to do

all the things I truly would

like to do if fear did not

live in my mind.
