MOONTRAP: A collection of English Poems

| sea |

Those feelings came to me,

like a warm tide of the sea

Comforted me,

made me fall in love

in love

with everything good in the world

the shining sun, the gleaming moon

the silver clouds, the twinkling stars,

and I felt like home,

the warm wave of love, 

of the ruthless sea,

but then it was over

as it ran away,

the way she came

dissolved

and all I could feel was

some sand grains

and emptiness. 

and It just felt so real,

and I saw myself burning

decaying

deconstructing

in the flames

and in the memories but 

the wave returned

with the same zeal and love

with the same comfort

and tickled my feet,

embarrassed my solitude

It all felt nice and nostalgic

but the wave returned to the sea.

I was again left broken

as if every person that ever

came into my life

came only to take a piece of my flesh

and left me incomplete

in agony and discomfort

but it was the taste of life

the taste of truth

and it only made me strong

for I no longer stand around the sea

those waves no longer appeal me

as I have

slowly 

became the sea myself.
