Shipwrecked

I wrote this awhile back and have wanted to share it for some time but for whatever reason, I have struggled with sharing my poetry freely like I once would have! But I am not afraid anymore. This is a safe place and I hope someone can relate to it and that it can maybe help someone. Thanks for taking the time to read it.

It's like we're shipwrecked, 

Stranded

On an island

Over and over again

Capsizing

Never ending repetition

Never learning

Never changing

Over and over again

Weaving through the debris

Hoping for a change at sea

Desperately grasping for air

Drowning in this misery

Fading into oblivion

It's like we're shipwrecked,

Stranded

On an island

Over and over again

Capsizing

Never ending repetition

Never learning

Never changing

Over and over again

I see the sun is rising

Hoping for another day

A new escape

A bit of change

It's a mystery

But He knows

He sees

He helps

And He redeems

He's the hope

Within the waves

The light within the screams

He knows

He sees

He redeems

He's the hope 

Don't you see?
