Gazing out across the waters lazy stretch
I smile
cannot drag my eyes away as
waves sweep over me, their tunes
attuned to my mind.
They penetrate its darkness
catch it in a mumble
…a jumble of remembering
Love is like a river on its
journey to the sea
but we each have to pay
the ferryman, eventually.
We share a shuddered sigh
(the breeze and I)
Do I close the book on
an unwritten page
forget the pain.
Tuck it neatly away on
the bottom shelf and never
feel that exquisite ache again.
Eternity…
such a long time to be
without, within
when in truth
it is the places we cannot go
that need to be touched
the most.
