Salt of The Sea

Echoes of my paradox
Sound, in my Pandora’s box
Distant in the morning light
Haunt me in my sleep at night.

Live with me from day to day
Never have they gone away
Sweep me like a hurricane
Lightning, thunder, all in vein.

A tempest in a teacup
From this brew I ever sup
Time and age has changed the knew
Steeped it to a bitter brew.

The snake whispered to my wife.
The apple destroyed my life.
Coming from a common salt
There is no blame or fault.
And
My salt returns to the sea
The prime creator of me
