We Owe It To Ourselves

They said, "We owe this
to ourselves."
And I nodded
And I agreed
We owe it to ourselves to look
for some way out
of where we are now.
For a world of difference
that's hiding in
the dark.
Sometimes I wonder
and sometimes I wish.
But I never ever thought
that things would end
like this.
No...
I assumed the world
would sweep me off with passion
and carry me swiftly
to the horizon.
That the sail would be steady
but instead
I was thrown back overboard.
I'm still just learning
how to swim.
We owe it to ourselves
to find a deeper truth.
