A Family Sailing The Same Boat Poem by RIC BASTASA

A Family Sailing The Same Boat

Rating: 5.0


we sail the same boat
on same sea
but our minds are having
different storms

we take side with silence
and lean towards
numbness

we see the same sun but
feel a different coldness

we should have coddled each
others' loneliness

huddled with each much needed
warmth

but as usual what prevails
is our chosen field of
privacy

as we choose
to maim our souls
what we have never spoken
for once.
