Point Nemo

 

It's hard to know what brought me here –

yearning to be far from reach.

Do not try to reach me.

My desire is not to regain the shore.  It's not in finding land that I'll be saved.

I choose to stay at sea ...

lost ... but saved

by the vast blue horizon that calms my soul.

Do not try to reach me.

Note:  the place on Earth furthest from land is called "Point Nemo" or "the oceanic pole of inaccessibility".
