i went for a swim today
in the small pool of water i have in my home
while sitting and watching petite waves crash
aimlessly against the porcelain walls
i think to myself
of how wonderful it is to be cleansed
of all the filth that today has spit upon me,
and yet,
more importantly,
i keep with me the happiness
the sunrise of this morning gave
i keep with me the promise
of not knowing what tomorrow will bring
and best of all i keep with me
the warm embrace of the water that carries me
through the stream of my undying imagination.
