A poem by Nickie. || December 27, 2024


The night sea is a staggering

force of nature.

An abyss that you can feel and hear,

but not see.

The stillness of the earth colliding with the chaos of the waves

serves as a portal from what you've known

to what could be.

The sand pulls your feet down as you walk,

the land's last vain attempt to keep you

on the shore.

But try though it might,

your heart blazes forward,

your soul in tow.

Ahead towards the unknown.
