Breaking Surface

Updated: Apr 21, 2020

Let no one keep you from your journey,

no rabbi or priest, no mother

who wants you to dig for treasures

she misplaced, no father

who won't let one life be enough,

no lover who measures their worth

by what you might give up,

no voice that tells you in the night

it can't be done.


Let nothing dissuade you

from seeing what you see

or feeling the winds that make you

want to dance alone

or go where no one

has yet to go.


You are the only explorer.

your heart, the unreadable compass.

Your soul, the shore of a promise

too great to be ignored.
