Cliffs

You are stuck on a beach between the white cliffs and the sea.
The sound of the tide Crashing against the rocks and the reef.
Above you, sitting on the cliff, is a tree.

Alone.

Surrounded by the tangy smell of the sea’s salt,
You look to the tree for a symbol of hope.
A rainbow above it from the mist of the sea.

That tree represents your goals and you climb to reach for it everyday;
but you remember that you are stuck between the cliffs and the sea.

The cliffs represent all the obstacles in your way.
Whether you have a steep or gentle slope you climb no matter what;Because the sea represents everything you are trying to get away from.

With every crashing tide sounding like the breaking of glass that is your past.
You climb to reach for your goals and to not be eclipsed by the waves.
