Waves crash down
waves of intensity
beyond what seems bearable
Feelings and fears
Efforts and tasks
People and strangers
It is too much
it darkens
I shake
and through all this
I crawl through
for now
and wonder what is left
Days pass
I look back and see
what has been passed through
and wonder how
The night passes
the next day comes
I peer out to see
what will come now
what must be endured
what will I endure
what waves are next
