Freedom... Wave's... And... Distance...

Freedom... Wave's... And... Distance...

by TheCircleArt

Once... It sailed... Once it faced storms that would send lesser vessels back toward the safety of shore... Once it belonged to the sea... Now... It stands alone behind the marina... Lifted from the water long ago... Chained to remain motionless... Its wooden bones slowly surrendering themselves to time... The paint peels... The timber cracks... Salt and seasons continue their patient work... Time... never shown mercy to those who stop moving... The windows are covered in dust... Dark now... Nothing enters... Nothing leaves... The sunlight touches them each day... The moonlight touches them each night... Yet never reaches the cabin within... People pass nearby... They glance toward it briefly... Then continue on their way... They see an old ship... A relic awaiting disposal... Ship... Perhaps it still remembers... The pull of the tide beneath its hull... The voice of the wind filling its sails... The endless conversation between sea and sky... Some memories can't disappear... They simply linger... Remains... Watching the harbor... Watching younger vessels come and go... Watching journeys begin... Watching journeys return... While its own remains unfinished... There is... a peculiar sadness in that... Not in age... Not in decay... But... in stillness... Because some things were never meant to stand still... The sea remains beyond the horizon... Waiting... The waves continue their ancient dance... The wind continues its wandering... And the ship... The ship remembers... Freedom... Wave's... And... Distance... And the feeling of belonging to something larger than itself... Sometimes, as evening settles over the marina... Waiting for the impossible sound... The command to cast off once more... And return home... To feel again...
