Anchors Away!

Anchored are we

Freedom never a reality

The waves move us in every direction

Yet we go nowhere

Times passes and the tide rises

We rise and fall with it

Believing that our perspective has change and therefore we have moved

A child’s idea of hope

Forever in the same water only at different seasons

To comfortable to realize that we never left the old place

Never bound for open seas

Still only in shallow waters

A waste of a vessel

Time just floating us by

Fooled into thinking that land to our backs and sea straight ahead

Meant progress was made

We never ventured forward

Just treading water in place

Anchored to these lives

Free to never be

Open seas we will never see

Segundo Juan Devora
