Oceans of You

Strange gray island Cloaked In salty haze Dead slate clouds Falling Over pitching blackness A hint of song Carried Across haunted swells I can barely Make Out the sweet lyrics Glowing with warmth Skin Kissed by eternity A lover promised Finally From a ghostly paradise Insane beauty Reaching Out to me Liquid desolation separates Her From me Must cross Now Ahh! There she is! Succulent treasure Singing (wailing) Beckoning (demanding) Promising (bargaining) Drawing (pulling) Jagged rocks looming…. Coming closer… …in focus now… warming (chilling) comforting (incarcerating) giving (taking) can’t turn back kissing (damning) loving (loving) OhYesOhNoOhYesOhNo Becoming one Letting go now Goodbye Goodbye Shrieking laughter Echoes Through the minds of the lost
