Lonely Depths
***So, I think there's a common theme in a lot of my writings...but, hey, what can I say? I write to release the demons inside. So it stands to reason that what I produce would have a common theme. Either way, here's another I wrote a few years ago.***
Lonely Depths
A whispered roar of waves
Crashed against her seashell ears;
A memory adrift inside her mind
Tossed and tumbled by her past.
No means to purge her stormy thoughts-
She came to scorching sands
And scalding waters
To cleanse her soul;
Scorn, guilt washed over her instead.
“LIFEGUARD OFF DUTY’
No one to save her now…
Rolling white crests taunted and teased,
“Come and play,
Be reborn in an ocean of foam”
Her silent step ignored her screaming heart,
Ocean hands grabbed her ankles,
Massaged her unwilling legs;
“Close your eyes
Forget about despair”
Haunting siren song lured her
From further off, beyond her reach.
She released her torment
And whispered surrender
To roaring
silent
waves.
