Poem Title:
Poem
She’s alone under beach lights, she’s screaming at air wishing someone would notice, could anyone hear, feel the anguish, the loss, losing battle of one? She’s at war with the world and she’s comming undone. ‘It’s all wrong,’ left her lips, ‘it’s alright,’ said the tides, ‘sometimes we all need a safe place to hide, to wait inside shadows, return with new light cause we change and we change till the patterns are right.’ ‘But this pounding resounding inside of my head, I fear is the only thing tangible left. I can hear it and feel it consuming my head, eats me up from the inside, lays nothing to rest.’ But the water just turned and it crashed upon rocks, became angry, determined, climbed onto the dock, said, ‘Listen to me, I am old and I am wise, what reason have I to fill you with lies? I’m a part of your body, a piece of your world, have I not kept you living since you were a girl?’ But her feet kept on forward at a steady pace “I’m sick and I'm tired, I'm leaving this place. I can wait no longer for the turning of time. I'm the only one left and I’ve been left behind.” ‘But they’re here! Someone’s coming! It won’t be long yet.” but her mind was as certain as certain could get and the rushing of water had drown out the sound as the pounding inside became heavy and loud and the water, though angry, then grew very still whispered ‘There is nothing if nothing is fueling a will. I cannot instill a desire to live, eventual peace is all I could give.’ So she sank and she sang all the air from her lungs, she breathed in the waves awaited silence to come. “As I have in you, you may now flow through me,” and the tides changed again as they dragged her to sea.
