PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

M-tremble be a mention
  of love's gentlest bloom
R-nearing the rocky shores of doom
  the reef lies hidden
  the night it cloaks
M-I pity the moment which finds me drown
R-my strengths are gone
  the life leaving me
  my body sinks deeply into the sea
M-the life raft my mind
  a foolish moth eaten dream
  scuttles my fear
  a burgeoning pitiless scream
  from this aisle I chart my course
  leaving it behind with no remorse
  proudly upon the bow I stand
  turning away from the bloody sand
M-sustenance
  those rocks up ahead
  they sing songs
  from a name less siren
  to me
  in the roar of my deadened ears
  plucked from my watery would be grave
  I bask now
  just as nameless as they
  for too tired am I to more clearly see............
