Sinking

Life's waters are thick and opaque,

I struggle to stay awake.

The current thrusts me about more than i can bear,

I flail and fail and remain drowning there.

Ripping winds of change blind my sight,

As i go under, how much longer can i fight?

In the dark sea there is no direction,

Is there any possible resurrection?

Then out of midnight you appeared,

Luminous against all of my dangerous fears.

My salvation from the wreckage, you guided me aboard,

and in your warm arms, my safe haven was restored.
