Unbounded

Unbounded

 
As I sail upon my very own vessel
on this, the vicious tempestuous
boundless ocean 
I’m ever aware that my delicate dreams
are unfulfilled
lying deep within my dying heart
dreams of mine
that could never become reality 
often wondering
if this magnificent mast ever snapped 
would anything really change at all?
could I possibly sail off 
into a magnificent sunset?
or eventually drown in these
the starving waves
that I call life?

'the starving waves' 
Great line...for me that sums up all of humanities plight...drowning or starving either physically, emotionally or spiritually.
