Drifting
Slowly and silently
Clamly and gently.
Leave me to float
Out where no one else goes.
I rest my hand upon the air
Let life live
Without a single care
For i am a drifter,
A small piece of wood
Hugging the waves
As my body should.
Drifter is an ugly name
Not one given at birth
but another name that was given to me
By silly men on Earth.
For drifting is my act
One that I am goof at
Tell me that I am good
Tell me that drifting is
Somewhat understood.
For who desires to stay?
In one place
from day to day.
Not me I say.
Let me drift,
Amongst the waves.
