Darling

It's been said that all that happens
already happened before
Like the waves which a million times
already kisses the shore
But once in a while, in those familiar moments
when your soul is going through a drought
You feel all at once naive and old
Left with nothing but your own thoughts

Your courage refuses to set sail
Because, frankly, it seems like you will fail
And you could never survive that
Since your soul is much too frail
Your head tells you that in this life
security is all you need
Then somewhere deep inside, "But darling,
what if you succeed?"
