Samara...

Cerulean sky, silvery cloud;
           looked down and found me lost in a crowd.

The Life Is …
When I was young there was no pain,
The only pain was to complain.

	Deep in the ocean, fully aware.
Darkness my cover, cold and sad;
	Covering my soul, making me mad.
Who deserves this much loneliness?
	In the dark ocean of the emptiness.
Months have passed,...

     How much longer to ignore?
How much longer to pretend?

Marred and minced remnants pile high in a storm’s swarm
Yesterdays, hardened-soft, surface where sea’s warm…

Flotsam found, lays tales around, in frayed traces
Another shattered shell whimpers of graces
vying with the sea-swept sands: gloss embossed fades…
Ocean’s dead!...
