“To Swim” is poem about exploring life beyond the realms of the known safe borders. To do so is probably unwise, but the lure of the action disregards the unwise outcome.
To Swim
I want to swim
far from the shore
there to live
not to expire
one way journey
into the void
in deep depths
where I may lie
temptation’s guile
led me here
a foreign place
not my home
I’ll not regret
perhaps I will
just a little
before I swim
to find my way
I know not where
when I arrive
I’ll be there
leave the land
to not return
to find myself
lost in your arms.
