The Sea of Life

An inward-looking philosophical poem that depicts sailing in a stormy sea of life, by Francesco – exclusively for Different Truths.

It is like the sea
stormy
emotions stir
the stunned thoughts
forgotten anchors
backdrops
still invisible
a vast ocean blue
to explore and navigate.
We are small boats
the waves of life
they always toast
every moment
to our adversities
shores and hopes
they are landings
hoped for.
Let's sail
silently
storms
the swollen seas
storms
and storm surges
they sweep like volcanoes
the faint memories
the tides bring us back
back in time.
We smile drowned
in the blue
marine waters
like castaways
we breathe
life and salt
forgetting
the acrid taste
some blood
that flows
in the sea
of life.
