Waves

As I stood on the edge
Just peering down
A calming rush of feelings
Feelings of being swept up overcame
Watching
Waiting for more
Mesmerized by perilous waves
Crashing against the bough
My thought ran abit wild
Nothing stood still in my mind
Scattered yet in awe
Matters of the heart
Swirling through time
Filled with so much passion
Strong and demanding
Yet giving up without resistance
Ripples backing down
Dying slowing
Drowning in softness
What was once fierce?
Now mollified
Beaten
Only to start all over again
I listen for the calm
Smiling, just watching
Wondering
If you can see it too
