Spirit of the Sea My gaze upturned Seeing surface, sequined and still All that is left to me, floats, emotes Without body or mind, only wonder exists A capsule of breath, a locket of air Soul calls to soul A thimble filled of brine kept within the darkened depths as shimmering tendrils of time float lazily. Without body or mind, without darkness to fear...a locket of hair left lingering, dancing without a living desire. Soul calls to soul Seeking differently, the waves Lacquered up above me, rolling An endless ebb where desire wells Moving forward, unassuming as ecstasy Without body or mind, without touch or thought Moving to the unknown Soul calls to soul Left behind as the bounds of man become No more, as endless souls sink the blackened Depths into the chilled dampness where a Soul might rest. Delicately caught, the breath That rises from the core of earth, kept for The moment of lips brushing, souls flushing, Within the airless binds. Soul calls to soul And in the heartbeat of the sea We are answered |

Stunning write from beginning to end! It lingers after the reading calling like soul to soul to be read again. |
