This Godforsaken Sea
Emery Hall Nov 2013
Here I lay
In the silence of my mind,
And in the darkness of time
Where all is lost,
In these depths of
This godforsaken sea.

And as I look up
At the fading stars,
Always running
Away from me.
They give me joy

As I slowly sink
In this godforsaken sea

Here I stand
Emery Hall Jun 2014
Here I stand
where the winter wind
gently toys the ends
of my dying hair

Here I stand,
or do I lay?
in the walls of snow
where no one remembers to go

The slivers of silver of ice
***** my blue skin-
no longer melting
as my breaths grow thin

Here I lay
in snow as soft as sand
wondering
how I got to such a burning place

Here I lay
with the ice so warm
yearning
for the times I could have had

— The End —
