Every second as the world orbits the sun You build yourself up and then crash Turning yourself back into foam so another replica can replace you People love and cherish you They watch and hope for you to arrive Yet I would rather have a steady pool of water I do not seek for your restless, uneasy, savage green rollercoaster You are not my higher power; my gravity; my way of life You are a nice story, lesson, and image for people to adore Yet I am not one of those people: I am not a water person I am not a believer in your life jacket saving ways I respect how hard you work to recollect broken pieces and turn them into sea glass; a beautiful and gentle masterpiece So yes, sometimes I will dip my feet into your world; but your current is not strong enough to pull me in Your foam is not white and bubbly enough to intrigue me Nor your great animals that swim about and rely on you for life I am me And You are you Maybe crossing paths isn't the best option, but I'll wait and watch your waves crash from afar
