Awake in me
Soul of a floating shipwreck on a war torn sea
Whose tidal patterns never cease
To tear
At the foundations of the rocks who stand firm
on the ever- decreasing shore
Break this ship from your beach
Sign your sail to the wind
That echoes my name
This untamed ocean of mine moves
In shifts
In phases
Effaces
The shore lined sand castles
Where all my children used to live.
Break free of this earth
And let your heart be led
To a place where feet will find no solid space
to tread
My love
Means never wondering when
Your toes will touch on solid earth again
I will rename you in ruin
In the salt
In the pounding current events
Floating driftwood, keep your lungs
Just above the water
Just beyond the vanishing point
My thoughts of you
Would eclipse the moon
If I could stack them on your tired head
Drown in me
Let slide to deep
These skeletons that you carry
On your slowly breaking back.
Never will you stand on your own two feet again.
Oh waves, hold me back
Oh ocean
Oh beautiful
Floating shipwreck.
