White Flag

I couldn't sleep one night.

Can’t sleep at night,

toss and turn

over Isles of white and linen shores.

 

Peace of dreams,

so far off.

The circling birds are my only company.

 

A drifting boat,

on a still sea,

finds no breeze to sail it home.

 

Raise your white flag high,

let go of your nightmares,

and paddle yourself anywhere but here.

so beuatiful and inpsiring

[Vedant Goenka]

briliant!

[WhiteWillow]

Beautiful piece. I love the smooth flow of the words, and the dichotomous message it sends.

Enjoyed your White Flag, and I like the idea of giving in and paddling to somewhere else.
