Each time I taunted with emotion,
my soul would squeeze even tighter.
Then, past a wet wind’s gale.

It was the key that finally broke me.
So…I ran to the salty sea.
Broke free from this ransom.
Until my sorrows let.
Forever with the ocean my secret.

I’ll stand that day,
at the foot of your grave.
Just past the last of those who cared.
My presence will be for a moment,

A prayer, I will bring only one.
Cold eulogy from a son.
Not because I have lost you.
No…because I have forgotten you.

It reminded me of you.
Sadly, it too had been plucked from its roots.

Harboured Feelings

I had you for a while,
then…I lost you to the sea.
Alone in these narrows,
until the day you return to me.
