The Ocean For Her
the sun shines
over the ocean shore
so brightly, but she confines
herself to her dreary world
once more
she draws a line
in the sand
with the pain
that she’s swirled
time is not kind
it never was
and it won’t ever be
she has aged
like fine wine
without qualm and pause
though, she’s dying to flee
when the wave gently kisses her feet
and washes the line away
like an irresistible temptation
confinement is now obsolete
so is her dismay
in the gust of old emotion;
she’d once walked away
lost in a fool’s paradise
but there will be no twice
as the ocean calls her
like an old lover
yearning to be rediscovered
ere the horizon line gets blurred
she will sail away
catch her light
with all her might
and let the ocean takes her
with all its might.
