Simply Tethered

Floating by the dock
Floating so effortlessly
All alone.

Sometimes, I start to drift away,
Testing my line,
Happy to feel it tighten,
Knowing that I am safe.

Too often, my old ways hold me back.
I wish I could break through
To venture out and float away
Out where the others play.

To float right on past the breakwater
To have my own adventures
To come back home and and tie up again.
