Serenity

I seek after
Thy nature
The calm
Inside of me.

The peaceful
Waters,
Beckon to me
In moonlight.

“I am no
Jesus, or
Holy saint!”
I protest.

“Trust me,”
Is all I
Hear, as
It calls me.

I relent,
Giving in,
Reaching
The shore.

The water
Laps my
Feet, as I
Dare not stray.

Let it cleanse
The filth
Inside of me,
Like holy water.

Let it be
My baptism,
As I tread
Water.

“To the point
Of no return,”
I pledge onto
My pitiful self.

I dive in,
Deeper,
Deeper
Into the sea.

“To the point
Of no return,”
I vow onto
My meek soul.

Letting the
Peaceful
Waters
Drift me away.

I am an Arizona native that has gone to SNHU online for a Bachelors creative writing degree in poetry. I aspire to not only fulfill my dream of being a recognized poet, but also to advance my work into a potential career.
