Sea Of Sorrow

Oh, how I've been holding every emotion one can find
And, they all hold every part of you
I've felt every sea Gods made out there in this world
And, only he knows I've been every shade of blue...

My latest cry is in the middle of the darkest night
When every soul lies in the deepest sleep
But, I lie awake in the memory of her face
And, I just walk hopelessly along every blue like sea...

It's the sea of sorrow my soul makes a path along
I only barely make it through
So, I drag my feet in the deep brown sand
Trying to find the sun that I once knew...

It rains endlessly on me when moments come to mind
My heavy heart feels each raindrop that falls
God, how do I walk the sea of sorrow in a happier way?
When I never seem to hear her singing for me at all...

She promised me that the stars would always be mine
But, the sea is more raging than before
I don't have the strength to push away the endless waters at my feet...
I just carry the sorrow from shore to shore...

Life's sea of sorrow is a never ending path
All I want is to live life in her eyes
Let me say, God, what I never got the chance to say
And, maybe then it won't rain and I won't cry...

So, you'll find me where both calm and raging is heard
And, praying the storms leave my aching heart
The sea of sorrow is where I'll live the rest of my days
Pulling myself in the depth of sadness while we are apart...

Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak
I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps

Saunni - your 'Sea Of Sorrow' is written from a sad heart, but beautiful in own way. I know your pain, and sadness, and wish you well.

When sadness is expressed in such a lovely fashion as this it leaves no doubt as to the depth of love in your heart nor the pain you feel. Your pen honors you just as you honor her with your words. Well written my friend. God bless you!

Saun...
What depth the sorrow has in this writing...
It is enough to tug at anyone's heart, my friend, and it is beautiful in it's sadness..


Live...Love...Be grateful for both!!

excellent. . .
