The Seagull

You’re confused

This isn’t your usual surrounding

Where are the waves

Where’s your blurry reflection

No life below

Not life that you would recognise

Or at least want to

Gliding effortlessly as ever

In a space that isn’t yours

You follow a route

Made to lead some where

But equally no where

No longer vast

Or expansive

And limitless

You choose a journey dictated for you.

You should have stayed

But perhaps an experience awaits

One that involves growth

Even if it isn’t right for you.

So keep moving,

Gliding

Even if where you’re headed

Will lead you

No where.
