patient power

lots of choices lay ahead 

and here I am 

riding it out like 

a wave that doesnt want to break so soon 

seeing its fate just upon the shore 

seconds away it hangs, before crashing down 

and retreating to be filtered back in 

just to have to build itself back up 

and be broken on the ground again 

what if the wave escaped far out into 

the middle of the ocean 

where it leaped and surged

and built itself with other tired waves 

and waited and hired and finally came 

roaring towards the shore taking 

the land by surprise
