Description Riptide

The tides are not predictable,
they can shift at any moment
and take you under with a rip,
slipping into places unknown to
yourself,

or others...

It took me to a cave,
I hid there well,
without knowledge of my
friends, family, foes..

I sat there for days,
contemplating the tides
that took me to this hidden
sanctuary of solitude and seclusion.

Maybe one day the tides will calm,
and I will emerge,
swimming slowly, steadily, towards normalcy.

Sometimes it is calming and necessary to hide away in a cave. I really like the poem. The whole idea of being sucked away by the tide into a cave is a good one and I thought you executed it well.

Quick one, but I like the images, esp. the first few lines.
