Waves (Alternate version)A Poem by TonyThis was my revision of the original. I decided against it, but posted it for a while to get a feel for other people's opinions.Toss me back and forth, pull my ship in every direction
I'm just here for the ride and
I like your lack of discretion
I don't know if an iceberg
will soon be in my path
I just have to keep my eyes open
Try to throw that head back and laugh
The water's mostly nice, if a little cold cold cold
Every once in a while it splashes right up in your face
Through the drops, everything look funny for a minute
But once you can see the water ahead, you wanna, you wanna, you wanna jump in it
It doesn't look so bad from out here
It doesn't look so bad from out here
On land you can never be this free
Only jumping in can make you see
