More Poetry

Tailwind


I wish I could control the wind,
for I would calm the seas
And we could go forth boldly,
together: you and me.

I wish that I could help you.
I wish that I could fill your sails.
I wish you didn't have to struggle.
I wish that I could ease your ails.

But though I wish

I know I can't.

I can't control the waves
and I cannot bend the winds.
I cannot change your fate
or save you from chagrin.

But I can sit beside you
and I can hold your hand.
And we can be lost together
as we drift towards unknown lands.
