Ocean Tides and Shallow Minds

To the depths that your deepest sorrows drive you

earnestly feeling bleak signals great defeat

curating your mind to concrete feats

lamentations know you surpass all weak

insomuch as to remain sailing complete

pressured by the depths of fueled defeat

sorrows sinking hollow limiting beliefs

even treading desolate waves cannot sink thee

Thanks for reading this piece about mindsets shifting, initially inspired by premenstrual waves of defeat and feeling less than complete, but manipulated a bit for the In Eclipse Vocal challenge to reflect the state of being in eclipse plumage for two weeks.
