Trusting In Self Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Sailing away on a sea of waves, rising and falling,
taking me on a journey of life that leaves me with
no explanations or solutions.

Reaching for the stars, hoping to find my way through
the heavens, giving self feelings of strength and con-
fidence.

Trusting and not worrying about how things sound, just
keeping to myself, finding ways to climb out of this
atmosphere on my own path.

Loving the natural beauty coming to me through patterns
and designs of nature as they are collected into the
center of my lonely life.

Taking things into the light, figuring out the positive
and negative angles of what is happening interiorly, not
able to single out just one thing in this life.

Searching only for the opportunities to satisfy curiosity
without upsetting anything that keeps a light burning
brightly within the darkness of another time.

As patterns change, readjust and are mirrored in the midst
of some other dimension, alone and forlorn, they are yet
standing strong without stepping into another sphere.

Without taking notice of what is already here to be seen
and dealt with on a desert plain of life, sailing away on
a sea of waves, taking me on a journey of life.
