The waves wash over me Whispers in my ear Haunting melody A song I've come to fear Pulls me down below Drowns me in its tears Tells me where to go But I just stay right here And my soul cries out in pain Grips me endlessly Then darkness comes with rain Come to carry me And I would fall from grace If they would let me be In the waves I see your face Looking back at me |

This is very powerful, JML. J have felt the same way many a time myself. Thanks for sharing. Elizabeth "He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!" -The Crucible |

Intriguing title...don't know if this applies, but once when someone asked me why I was standing in the rain, I replied, "I was BORN wet." Now the visual of that remark may be disgusting to you, but there is a deeper wisdom there, and you have put it much more nicely, I might add. |

Intriguing title ..oh yes...and the word intrigue seems to come up a lot... as wound up as you were today...I was almost afraid to read this LOL..... And my soul cries out in pain Grips me endlessly Then darkness comes with rain Come to carry me And I would fall from grace If they would let me be In the waves I see your face Looking back at me very powerful poem... stalking you still, jm |

A very intriguing piece of poetry. Anything about the sea draws my interest |
