Poems
Nov 2017
The fishes are my friends
The harbor where my heart rests
Faintly beating with the ripples of the waves
I stood amongst the pebble with an anchor around my neck
One glance over the dark surface made me cower
The impenetrable veil of the ocean is not my friend
But its cold embrace warmed my heart
For when the wind blows the sails pass
For when the gulls hover over the piers
I closed my eyes and took a dive
And nobody ever saw me again
But when the sea howled my name, I came to rest
Tiny paper boats cluttering around the remains
That was not me...
...not anymore
As I glanced at the anchor that was chained to the hulls
For the current has freed me from my noose
As time smiles, it leaves
For when it frowns, it concedes
And I dipped my toes in the sand
