Only the cold sea is so merciless
The tide is rising
And it is becoming night
So completely alone
You are drifting away
But where, tell me, do you wish to go
This cold sea is boundless

The tide washes upon still flesh
But who holds your hand
When it pulls you under

Here comes the tide
Over you
And you sink into the black water
And the moon rests
In its place among the dark heavens

Time stands still
And I am cold [comments] => 2 [counter] => 204 [topic] => 25 [informant] => gequetscht [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )

The Tide

Do you feel the longing
Only the cold sea is so merciless
The tide is rising
And it is becoming night
So completely alone
You are drifting away
But where, tell me, do you wish to go
This cold sea is boundless

The tide washes upon still flesh
But who holds your hand
When it pulls you under

Here comes the tide
Over you
And you sink into the black water
And the moon rests
In its place among the dark heavens

Time stands still
And I am cold

I don't think it matters where I want to go
If I'm just going to end up drowning in the end...
Wondering if there's somewhere deeper that you're going with this.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
