Fogerty Creek
standing here at waters edge
it beckons........
enter
feeling the power of each wave
hit my body
peeling away each layer
of my soul
my very being!
(how) magnificent and (frightening) this power
to consume
to take me
from that place filed with pain and sorrow.
i drift..........................
to another shore
a star in the distance guides me
perhaps,
my sweet baby girl calls to me.
the roar.................so LOUD
thoughts fade into the nothingness
(my life has become)
VOID of passion!
dreams once held me afloat as i weathered the storms
now they (release me)
to my sadness
the (Phantom) no longer waits..................
freedom from pain is at hand
sorrow no longer mine,
has moved on
perhaps to him....... where no forgiveness was shown!
my battle ends and his begins.
a treasure lost at sea!
Shadow
