I bid your memory
Leave me be
Tossed it carefully
Into the sea

I felt liberated
I felt so free
Walking on the beach
It washed up to me

I was firm this time
Said you must see
I can’t keep you
Here with me

Further and farther
I cast you out to sea
Thinking now
It was history

In my mind resigned
Gone for good, finally
Here you came right back
Disappointingly

I tried once more
Now frantically
I had to get you
Away from me

On the beach, in sunset reflect
When suddenly
You were there again
In the heart of me

I finally gave up
decided to just leave you be
I would always love you
Endlessly


~SEA~



with all that you are...
with all that you know...
love......

That does it.  Now here this.  You ARE a poet.

Don't ever let ANYONE tell you otherwise.

This reminds me of someone who will always be in my heart, no matter
how many times I visit the ocean to try to forget.
Thank you for this one, Susan.

How can the Sea get rid of memories by tossing them into the sea? HuH?

You can make the memories muddle
If you toss them in a puddle
Or you can dissipate emotion
With one good throw into the ocean
Thoughts that make your poor heart break
Can be drowned quickly in a lake
But SEA can't kill a memory
By throwing it into the SEA!!!

Sea, It looks like you just got up from writing this and sat down on the sand in the beautiful picture. I am in awe of your weaving of words. Lovely. Chris

=========================================

Sea-girlie...DONT throw this muse into the ocean....
for it inspires great great things in you ....and besides....
we cant cast off nor wash off what under our skin
very cool write poetess Susan.

I ask why you come here, you say just because
Could I live without it if I knew what it was
But it really dont matter when you look at me that way.

Oh MY!!  can't say enough about this. One, it is exactly something I have done, I even threw his name into the sea, torn up into little pieces of paper. Didn't help.  The way you wrote it was just flawlss.
