Washed Away At Sea

Ripples once sweet transformed into large breaking waves Washing me away Dragging me down miles down into the abbyss of an open ocean. The zephyr breeze once gentle and soft turned and whirled into hurricaine force winds. The deep blue sea once blissed and still became a bitter taste of sea-salt tears Tears .. Tears that rolled over my rose -kissed cheeks against my chest into my sleep. Drops filled my mouth choking each heart-beat my body immersed pulling me down All the way down All the way down reaching the bottom Lost far away close to the edge of no return in sinking feeling of life and man. Weak Struggling tired and weak with no way out but vacant darkness Like a wild warrior loosing the battle I fought so hard Swimming way up both hope and loss breaking so free into the surface. I've risen risen above wet goose-bumped skin of murky waters Thinking of life Forgetting death I inhaled both cool mist and air. Breathing numb breaths in dizzy spells I cried for help... Eyes to the sky facing the moon I cried again Somebody help ! Somebody find me I lonely pleaded Somebody warm my failng soul Somebody love me Somebody hold me Somebody take me to a safe shore. Almost forgetting that everybody including you Have all been gone. Part 2 : And I'm still here like a small island that is not heard and goes unseen I'm not in waiting too proud to beg but as a dreamer still own a dream. I'm still believing in silver linings at the stretched - edge of fading tides I m still here feeling the serene beauty that once have captured this love that hides. Somebody find me Don't sail away With longing arms Please Come to me kiss these lips glowing in dusky shadows Be that brave life-guard who sets me free. Fiction poem
