Mine is a forlorn optimism A splendid setting sun Sinking in somber solitude Amidst daylight’s dwindling radiance Canvas of colorful clouds Painted across the vast emptiness of my soul
Such surfaces shelter submerged secrets A deep, darkening heart Clandestine it beats beneath waves I conjure Rolling rhythmically to the tune of time Until my tempest symphony crescendos Upon shores of strife and sorrow
From the sands I behold this spectacle A temporary testament to eternity Pondering purpose from this convergence Oceans of the hopeless forever Into skies of the faithful infinity Extending arms towards the unreachable *Horizon
