Lullaby

there is a lullaby about a baby
sleeping by the ocean
as the mother works by the ocean.
it’s a rather peaceful song
a song that makes you long
but longer you listen to it
further you sink
into sand dunes of the past
ephemeral, its shape
yet so heavy, its weight.
I hope you stay awake
before it’s too late
for there are real ones who wait
for you to rise again with your faith
faith in reaching your goal,
faith in being whole.
so, it’s time to rise
it’s a good day to be alive.
