Into the blue
A poem written by Denny K. Schuldt.
I’m navigating into the blue,
alone in a boat that used to be full.
Facing the waves in the ocean of life,
sometimes uneasy, sometimes alright.
I’ve been accused of treating feelings like math,
of being a robot instead of feeling my path.
I can’t help the way I process and feel,
praying every time I could keep the wheel.
I see myself as an open-minded being,
learning and growing with my mind freeing.
My talents sometimes work against me,
The cases they do, they pain me.
I sleep to avoid feeling,
hoping tomorrow I won’t be grieving.
The people that left the boat,
I can’t blame them at all.
