Tranquility

TRANQUILITY

Totally abandoned
Reaching out
Against the wind
No one is there.  A
Quickening heartbeat that is
Useless to calming me down.
Instead, I am sickened because
Love is not there and
Is buried in the rubble of 
Tanks of tarnished memories.  A
Yolk around my neck that drags me along.
