Soul Searching
I stand
at the water's edge
in deep thought
Recognizing
the disappearance
of what was once
solid ground
Voices
that I thought
were my own
echo their warnings
The undertow tugs
at my ambivalence,
waves of thoughts
not to stray
from what I know
How little confidence
this voice has in me
How powerfully
It has influenced
my life
But no more!
Groundlessness
will set me free
