Purple twilight creeping over the water Silently and slow The background noise begins to falter The ocean breeze steadily blows Among the rocks, upon soft sand is where I've found my home Nestled safely, though abandoned by the sunset's glow
I walk in a wilderness Of raw emotion And feral thoughts Constricting my chest In a relentless vice Unique calls Echo in silence Turning me deaf And the shadows Assault my eyes Hiding in the blind spot. My mind is ***** And my body is ravaged The hollow knock On an empty box And somehow I am home
Beneath the silence Unspoken words gurgled Like a stream over rocks But in your eyes The meaning smoldered Like warm coals And I knew instantly You were home
