but can you hear me, 
floating out here 
past the drift.
I am crying out, 
not sure the reason, 
but here I am 
all the same.
I am alright 
I know that for certain 
but what if alright 
is not good enough?
I am fighting, 
but can't see what I'm fighting, 
something hidden 
beyond my grip.
Is there a problem 
behind no problems 
something that I 
have maybe missed?
I am crying, 
crying out from the water 
no direction 
to head in.
I am crying out, 
filling my lungs to shout 
out to the darkness 
to know I am here.
I posted this on my other blog about a month ago and it seems appropriate for today so thought I would post it here.
