Sea Tides

When wind swept the oceans floor Emerging memories along the shore In oblivion it closeth the door Where lies the past stature And in the depth of the coast Where once the broken lost Torn in pieces, angst and milled By the billows it was killed. Yet the heart was stout and brave It feareth not the emblem of grave For though the pains had sung its songs Still the faith seems strong.

Stephany, a nice write your imagery is lovely, but I'm not sure of the meaning. I'm reading it with religious over tones. The line, "By the billows it was killed," is that referencing a person?

yes it does... it portrays a person that was once astray but now found under God's palm..
