Wading Away

I waited until waiting waded me a ways away.
Off shore, someplace where my name can’t reach me.

You think it’s funny.
Watching me waiting anxiously.
Keep laughing but you’re losing me.
Keep laughing as I’m wading into other homes.

You think it’s funny but you won’t be laughing when you finally see me.

Such a beautiful photo, so many shades of blue, and it’s as though each of the bubbles is holding one of your thoughts. Beautifully done 😊🌷

    I want to let you guys make the poem about and your experiences. It can mean anything you guys want/need 🙂 some poems I write a description about and some I don’t because I want people to find their meaning for it 🙂

    Wow that’s an incredible comparison. Thank you. I don’t think I’m as genius as they are though with their writing. They’re a good band! My mom used to play their music on her guitar years ago. 🙂 Thank you for the compliment. You’re kindness is appreciated! 🙂

“I waited until waiting waded me a ways away.” Despite the deep turmoil within your words, I can sense when an author is having fun with their creation. I missed your words and your lens Brittny.

    🙂 Much the same as everywhere I imagine, madness going on all around but life goes on somehow. I am well though, and my friends and family are safe, so I can’t complain. How about you?
