Dolphins

Unsure, uncertain as I watch them swim
Under and over through circles of light
Clear waters invite my mind to dive in
No pause to enjoy this beautiful sight
You whisper to me it will be okay
Releasing my fear to take the first step
Their bodies glide faster than mine today
But I fly past the feelings I have left
Upon hidden shores where no one will go
Near places I wandered too far, too fast
My hands to start to slip and the dolphins know
To be patient while I tighten my grasp
Speed, sound and danger vibrate through my mind
I'll remember to hold my breath next time
