POETRY | The Drifting Anchor by Felicia Ann

POETRY | The Drifting Anchor by Felicia Ann

Share this article via


There once was a girl

with an Ocean inside of her.

But thought she knew better

because she was an Anchor.

 

Cast into the depths of the Earth

Steadfast in her old rusty ways

Withstanding firmly the

currents of Change.

 

A rebel at heart,

Demolishing anything in her path-

She pushes and drags

resisting the Turbulence

 

Her past hastily calls

Its wounds live on pungently

Scoured memories flow easily

Beckoning her to stay.

 

Until she Surrendered-

To the echoes of her soul

Be here, Now, Let go

Her Present – told her so.

 

Now she leads the Waves

Of Uncertainty, with Clarity

Drifting purposefully

Free, her life is her Own.
