In the midst of sadness and despair

Another of these…

You know I like a good prompt and these are M’s for February. Why not give them a whirl.


Your sweet whisper the zephyr in my sails,

Still waters stretched before me.

And golden sunset calls me on

And horizons set me free

.

Clouds circle dark, waves stirred to life

And day turns into night

Cold watery claws scratch at my sides

And sanity takes flight

.

I dash myself against your rocks

Stare into your abyss

Drifting with the flotsam lost

Still hunger for your kiss

.

And golden daylight comes again

I swim towards your shore

though sirens call me to their arms

to lead me home once more
