Sailboat

In a sea of faces, I stand alone,

Lost amidst the crowd, a heart of stone,

A whisper in the cacophony of voices,

Seeking solace in life's endless choices.


Each person, a ship with a course unknown,

Their sails unfurled, their destinies sown,

Yet I drift, adrift in this vast expanse,

A soul unseen, caught in a mystic dance.


The waves of humanity, they ebb and flow,

But I'm a castaway, with nowhere to go,

I long for a lighthouse to guide my way,

To break this darkness, bring forth the day.


I yearn for connection, a kindred soul,

To make me feel complete, to make me whole,

But in this sea of strangers, I am but a ghost,

Lost in the crowd, a ship without a coast.


Yet still, I'll keep sailing, through the unknown,

Hoping someday I'll find a place to call home,

For even in this sea of people, so vast,

I'll hold onto hope, and this too shall pass.

TESTIMONIALS

"Can I just say how happy this story made me? And the chronic illness representation? Just.. I will ALWAYS read anything by this author!"

 "I loved this book. First off I felt really represented for the first time in a long time, between chronic pain and fatigue to constant doctors visits, I’ve never seen my life/sickness represented this accurately before. This book can also show me the other side with Archie’s support and how he handles supporting Eloise. Their love story felt natural in a young love slow burn sort of way which perfected the story for me."
