#41: The Moon in the Sea

On this quiet sandstone shore

The stillest night I've known

A moon above

A moon below

They both call to me

I cannot touch the sky

The moon that flies above

It’s unreachable

But this moon below

Floating? Sinking?

I do not really know

It looks like I can get there

I’ll dive in to the sea

I’ll swim there

I’m there

But it’s not there

I’m there, I’m nowhere

We all have plans of where we want to go and what we want to do with our lives. But we must ask ourselves, is what I'm planning and hoping for rooted in reality? Am I swimming to a moon that does not exist? 

Its funny to think that reaching the moon in the sky is even possible. But we've been there. I'm sure millions have dreamed of going there, millions have studied how to get there, and eventually, we made it there. But the moon in the sea, we'll never get there, because it does not exist.
