***
As I sit on the shore,
I just know there has to be more,
More than what I can see,
Other places where I need to be.
There has to be other places to go,
Far off places to explore,
My whole life in a seaside town,
The thought alone makes me frown.
Stuck in this little place,
Another member of the Rat-Race,
I should be away from all the strife,
In other places having a good life.
I watch the ships come and go,
I would love the sea this I know,
Alas marooned in this seaside town,
Wearing a constant frown.
