Walk with me
… awhile.

Hand in hand;
The way love should be…

Along the ebb and flow
 … of a salty white line.

Reflections dance
 Lightly upon dark, dark, water;

Akin to diamonds.

Merely, the shimmers, of long departed stars.

My Love,
You sustain me.
In times
When I may fall.

You are here
Within me.
Though,
Death now comes
To call.

My blood,
It is down to rations.
Now…
I know,
I am almost gone.

Oh this war,
I am so wary
It has been
Going on
Too long.

Sweet Thanatos
Come to me
I am
No longer strong.

His hands appear.
I know
It is,
Now, nearing the end.

But then,
I hear
A sound.
I hear you
My friend.

“You are not done yet…”

I feel
Your strength.
I hear
Your voice.
I hear,...
An angel ‘s bellows cry.

You, bring me back
To fighting.
Thanatos’ hands
Denied.

Moonlight;
Candlelight;
Dreams
…of loving you;
Sea-side
Where seashells
… ride the sea.

The tide’s dance
... to fools;
Sparkles
… from the blue;
Only love in the deep
... could be free.

As free
… as the wide open sea.

Only love
... in the deep
Could be free.

As free as
... the wide open sea.

Betwixt;
Be-twain;
The heart;
The brain;
Love;
In the deep
… could be free.

Only down
… in the deep is free.
Here.
.. in the deep
Blue sea.

My heart takes
… to the beach;
But legs
… fear to reach
Such love;
My love;
My need

In the deep;
In the deep
Is free.

Only in the deep
… is free.

Only here
In the deep blue sea.

Such shells shimmer
… along the sea;

My tears;
My love
…make me free,

Please, come;
Come now
...to me

Leave the shore
Be mine; I’m yours.

Come to me?
My love
… leave the shore;
Please, come
Make me free
Once more…

Only the deep
In the deep
… is free.

Only
... in the deep
Blue sea.

Only here;
In the deep blue sea..

.

Dispirit,
Alone,
No port,
Only storm,
A wake…
In high open seas.

Compress
Is gone.
Hull
Is all torn.
Rudderless...
And... all worn.
A providence...
There's no providence
… towards home.

Scuttling;
What is left...
To this destiny?
Theresa M Rose Jun 2014
I hear … The door.
A voice … In the hall.
Shush,...A call
He’s here.

He comes … To call
He is here… For her.
But I know,
I know,...
That’s not all…

He’s here.

A smile… I smile.
Its cold...
A sound.
Laugher,... I laugh,

A chill...

A tingle.

She goes...
Up the stairs.
My eyes...
Go down
I look ...
I look, around.

I’m alone.
No one...
No one...
Is here...

He’s,...
Here again.
He comes… to call.
Theresa M Rose Jun 2014
I sit in the park
Alone
In the dark.
I swing…
On a raggedy old swing.

It sings to me
A strange melody
Of what…
The new day will bring.

The birds begin to sing
Now
Now… it’s time to go home.
It time
To be
What they want to see.

It’s time
Now…
To be all alone.
Theresa M Rose Jun 2014
A moonless night;

The nocturnal sky.
Distant lights flicker;

So clear…; So far…;
So silent.
The scent of your sweet breath.

The rhythm of the sea;

Memories…; Moments…;
Your touch.
Simmers of tranquility;  

Darkness
Gently caresses the expanse;

Beyond time.
