kick

I wanted to kick
everything
to the curve
toss my burdens
into the ocean
drive off into
a setting sun
forgetting
all the things
that went wrong
and refresh
my journey
if only it was
so simple
instead
I’m tied down
to this dock

  1. I have to admit -- my first thought was what you were doing to become tied to a dock. Heh. Obviously it has been an exhausting night for me.

    If only it wer that simple.

  4. Ah....to refresh the journey....and then the final image of being tied to the dock. That's a wonderful image for that type of feeling...just bobbing along, unable to progress. Well done.

  5. "Kick everything to the curb" was the saying but I kinda like the curve ball :)

  6. Sometimes you want, but the ties are always stopping us... and maybe there is something good in that too.

  7. Letting each new day be a fresh beginning takes a lot of courage when we have to untie that knot that keeps us safely secured in the home port.

  8. Still though, doesn't hurt to kick every once in a while ~

  9. Sometimes it feels good to kick, but sometimes it is also nice to be anchored.
