Creative as always, Ms. Lucero! I love the repetition of words, it really works well. I imagine you sitting in a boat in the middle of the sea, and the waves keep on swaying it and tossing it. Sometimes, the calm after the storm is not the calmest, things may have calmed a little bit, but soon after some great storms will come and it's much harder to weather compared to the previous ones. Just gotta keep hanging on! Well written as always! Take care always, Ms. Lucero! (:

Lucero as mkkk says this is creative as usual and I really like it the repetition to a certain extent makes it sounds like a lullaby lol to me it's as though recently the 'waters' in your life have been disturbed like many of us but you'll get to the calm seas again...
Just one suggestion and it is only that the last line of the first stanza I reckon would sound better like this "like a waking who screams" as though they've already been rudely awoken by a night terror or hunger pains and are screaming for one of those reasons or possible just because..
Take care

Luce! I haven't read your poems in awhile and missed them.

This was honest and I love the imagery so many of us can relate to, when things become rocky and we are almost lost in our surroundings.

(Just keep swimming, just keep swimming...)

You got this!
