Swimming through a sea of thought
the current growing stronger.
Treading there, I contemplate
"Can I take this much longer."
The water of thought
it moves up and moves down.
I wade there and wonder
if I'm soon to drown.
1 too many times
I rode out on the wave.
Got lost in thoughts grip
and unable to save
myself from attacks by the stones of confusion
and therefore got lost in the winds of illusion.
The breeze had calmed down
now the water is cool
and I realize
that I was such a fool.
To go out and ride
without proper equipment.
I didn't take time
to wait for the shipment.
Impatient,
so I tried to surf on my own
and I didn't ponder,
but I should've known.
I didn't seek
a source of protection.
My impatient soul
tried avoiding rejection.
I shall no longer
live life in disdain.
I stand on dry land
and yet let my thoughts rain.

Well, as you can tell the piece is very metaphoric. I hope you can draw some conclusions from this, and I hope this allows your mind to rain thought.
Share with me your interpretations.

Wow!
I love the ending.. sumed up the entire piece, which for the record flowed flawlessly. This is soooo well done! At some point or another I think we all need to realize that yes we can take chances, but one must always "protect" themselves. Great Write!!!
