From the Sea of Hoces
to rolling Cape Horn
the sea is vengeful

The ocean rolls and boils
at our dangerous ignorance
and our prideful arrogance

It drifts ****** icebergs here
and chops the windy waves
to assault our fragile senses

It hides monsters in it's depths
waiting beneath the surface
in our grimed gyres they wait

For us to finally choke on
our foolish mistakes of time
the cold ocean will wait
The sea is impersonal to us, the cold waves snarked their shoulder at us. The ocean will wait with immortal patience for us to perish. Humanity may have wrought tragedy upon it, but the ocean will roll and boil till we die out from it's world.

No matter how much you sleep
sleep finds a way to creep
into your weary bones
and broken dragging mind

It always clings tight to you
fogging up your view
like sea mist over your eyes
it covers everything in sight

Rolling waves of exhaustion
sleeping now would be noxious
because the sea that is sleep
is only there to drown you

Those old melodies
will always be the best tunes
for melancholy

The walls will whisper
of what they witnessed
during the darkest night
of the man murdered

The roof holds dear
the soft hushing
of the young mother
soothing her babe

The graves soak up
all our fragile tears
that hit the ground
in the grieving sorrow

The grass will tremble
in anticipation now
at the bouncing step
of a new adventure
Inanimate objects have no thought of their own but perhaps the hold the dearest intentions of what we left behind.

If trees could talk
what wisdom
would they impart

They'd have so much
to say and to show
if only ever object could

they'd speak of horrors
what they have witnessed
through these ages

lurking over us
a mystery a puzzle
an eye that sees all

you don't want to be alone
cause alone seems to mean
that you will feel lonely

you don't want to be alone
cause they say antisocial
when you love select people

you don't want to be alone
cause not having a lover
isn't accepted by them yet

you don't want to be alone
cause they believe being solo
isn't the right way to go
I had a very interesting midnight session with a friend who has this intrinsic belief that she needs to be with someone to be happy. It's not true, you should be happy by yourself. You don't need to be with someone to not be lonely. Alone doesn't mean lonely.
