Standing on waves, wobbly like jelly for dessert
Precarious perch, gravity pulling at my shirt
Luck sits at the edge, whispering a prayer
Swirling seas below, destiny laid bare
Waves rising, questions in the foam
Will I climb or be swallowed whole, alone?
Staircase rising, slippery with regret
Ocean’s key, locked in tides unmet
Riptide pulling, gripping my soul tight
Dark clouds even casting doubt on the night
Rivulets of fear drip on stair edges—blurred
Which step is next? The answer's never confirmed
Breathing stutters, lost in the salt's harsh gaze
Mirages of safety in the storm's damp haze
Grip slipping, the stairs pale and quake
Striving upwards, my strength learning to fake
Waves rising, questions in the foam
Will I climb or be swallowed whole, alone?
Staircase rising, slippery with regret
Ocean’s key, locked in tides unmet
Hesitation a parasite, clings like wet weeds
Current of thoughts drags, drowning deeds
But inside, fire flickers, ember’s light fights
Against the roaring tide's consuming bite
Hesitation a parasite, clings like wet weeds
Current of thoughts drags, drowning deeds
But inside, fire flickers, ember’s light fights..
