Letting Go

Not sure where this is going.

There are more fish in the sea they said

Move on they said

They never said how hard it would be

Because they never said there were sharks in the sea

I wish to stand on the shore letting the breeze lift my hair

And the smell of salt water fill my lungs

I wish for the water to gently tickle my feet

Then return to where it came 

I look out at the water and see a beautiful sunset

And a dolphin jumping out of the water

The seagulls are cawing cheerfully 

And the waves play a gentle tune 

To enter the ocean again presents it's risks

You will either sink or swim

But I'll never know until I try

I take the first step and see the true beauty of what I'm missing.

I have to edit this later because I don't like it.

Lot of people don't "like" their life... few ever edit it though.
