Every night I go to sleep
with hopes that I be rid of me.
Every day I wake again
and everything is still the same.
Each wish I have is petal pulled
from a flower unfulfilled.
There is a gnawing grows in me--
a tempest tossed within the sea--
There is a sail that I've not set--
a safeguard for the things not met.
I have three masts--yet sail by two.
I keep it safe for storm of you.

Should tsunami come for me--
I'll let loose the slack;
swallowing the salt of sea,
coughing up the sands of fact.

I'll tie myself unto this boat..
with protest stuck within my throat.
I'll raise the flag of piracy,
and hold my breath to stay afloat.

I will rise
within the tide
and again will I recede...
I will, I will
be anything
that I think you need...

Lonely is the northern star
when one is lost at sea.
A pinpoint of a heaven's gate--
redeem what's left of me.

Let the ocean be my grave
if all my sin should be forgave.
Let the fishes eat my flesh,
and may the Gods forgive the rest...

Hmm you wanted a new title? How about

from a flower unfulfilled.

"I keep it safe for storm of you" Excellent choice of words....all the way through!!

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.

K, me Sis....

Each wish I have is petal pulled
from a flower unfulfilled

swallowing the salt of sea,
coughing up the sands of fact.

I will rise
within the tide
and again will I recede...
I will, I will
be anything
that I think you need...


Beautifully written and touching, well done m'friend, m'sis
