Siren

wed64


Siren sounded mournfully,
fragment of my mind,
salty wreckage drifted;
swollen whole in time.

Still the heartache lasted,
long the keening cried,
streaming tears of anger;
so my dreams denied.

Sails held on horizon,
sucking at the winds,
love moved ever distant;
my life alone begins.

  1. What a great rhytm this has. The sadness is that there is no sense of hope in the ultimate verse.

  2. The beautiful flow of this belies the sadness.. loneliness is like being lost at sea and i picture a foggy night and the dim glow of a lighthouse
