I wish not... To harbor these vessels. For I know In those holds is sickness. Crates of longing Often opened, empty. Barells upon barrels Of jet black loneliness Forever splashing, unsealed, seeping. So like my dreams These ships of her navy. Christened with shades of she "Lost Love", "my One", "my only",  "nevermore", "ever after"... They set no sail Anchored securely off my shores. Out of reach Yet constant in presence. Seeking no barter, no passage... No plunder. Ghostlike they haunt All of what I most want. And dreams like mine Always calling Taunting those black sails In windless waters Embracing no breeze Only serving to open old wounds My spyglass weeps Fixed on yesterhorizons Where gone and do go Phantoms and shades My sea of regrets.  Jfehlmann
