(8th April 2009) The rain has passed Retreating out to sea Withdrawing Until the clouds are flat beneath Yet billow high overhead Sitting on the rocky cliffs Waiting for the tide I pick at the rock beneath me As tears flow from my eyes My feet resting on nothing Weeping into a stream of brackish water Yet fresh from the recent rain My sorrow is carried to the horizon Occasionally Salt water crashes beneath And my feet are wet with salty flecks The sea mourns ‘longside me Events flood like the rising tide Thoughts rip through my mind Broken promises not mine to claim Lie as shattered as my heart Yet as I watch the storm retreat I don’t want to swim The sun peeks from behind the grey Infecting the sky with colour I can breath now My soul has stopped shaking But my head never empties Yet turns inwards and quivers Sorrow voided from my face Like the setting sun Hiding from the world Similar It will always be there Long will it live Hopefully it won’t bring apocalypse Not my sorrow Airy pockets Coins jangle as I stand One is thrown into the waves A wish for better days A wish for love’s return A wish for realisation A wish for wishing’s sake. The rocks where I sat Will be washed with the tide Sweeping away all sign of my presence Would that my pain Swallowed with my tears Would vanish with the guidance of Selene Swept out to sea Following the storm ---------------------------- Life is pretty bouncy sometimes. Still, the storm was nice, pity there was no lightning. Bare with me, I've yet to edit and punctuate it. ---------------------------- Beauty can be found in all places, even within the darkness of the soul. |

"Sorrow voided from my face Like the setting sun Hiding from the world Similar It will always be there Long will it live Hopefully it won’t bring apocalypse Not my sorrow" "The rocks where I sat Will be washed with the tide Sweeping away all sign of my presence Would that my pain Swallowed with my tears Would vanish with the guidance of Selene Swept out to sea Following the storm" Very nice. I love the imagery, theme and delivery of this piece. A very nice read indeed. - If I cant bend Heaven, I shall move Hell - |
