Premium Member Hurtfully Healing
Steadily swimming She flashes a grin Doc in a boat Take's a note she won't surrender. She wants to win finds strength within. Worriedly Waiting, friend wishes she'd ask herself "why" and paces the French side. Hastily helping, she rises a moment to wave, before waves re-hide He feels pride inside Stand by the starlight, The watch boat is tossed Pain...

Noah saved us from the floods With two of every kind I tip my hat to thank him But there's something on my mind If he saved two of all that's known How come I'm alone? I hope he didn't sail too soon I hope he wasn't late Noah answer just one question What happened to my mate? If he saved two of all that's...

Premium Member Swim the Ocean Depths
Take me where the ocean rolls bigger than the pain in my soul. Let me lay upon shore sand, hold its grit in my hand while the ocean claims ground again, so sure of where it belongs to begin its own fated end. Let ships on the horizon remind me how small I...

Premium Member Learning to swim
Sitting on the hot asphalt blacktop in miles of traffic, feeling lost and alone. People around me doing the same, everyone seems so sullen and confused. Cell phone junkies don't know if its day or night in their mundane lives, I guess not much matters anymore. My mind drifts from one thought to another, thinking what's it...

Far away your love can fly
Yeah! Far away your love can fly, But forget not, I have a wing, My hands can swim the sky so high, To be there on your throne as king. Yeah! Far away your love can fly, But forget not, I have a wing, Like stars, I'll twinkle in your sky, Many sweet songs, my mouth would sing. Yeah! Far away your love...

Drifting, drifting we float, in azure abysses aglow Drifting, drifting we glide, amidst aquatic artistry's flow Drifting, drifting we go, where coral constellations grow Swimming, swimming we surge, through sapphire seas serene Swimming, swimming we swirl, where silent symphonies convene Swimming, swimming we soar, as shimmering schools careen Deeper, deeper we dive, discovering diverse domains Deeper, deeper we delve, dreaming in diaphanous...

When you are washed away by the tides of life, Swallowed whole by the anonymity of the sea, Forgotten about, -as meaningless as codfish-, -Battered and bloodied by the ruthless ocean Remember; I will be waiting when you wash ashore. ...

Premium Member I Do not Believe in Mermaids
Summer would soon be over I thought wryly as I walked Along the beach, bare-footed, Admiring the beauty of the sun setting Behind the far away mountains. She emerged from the sea, all wet, And hid behind a large rock. I meant her no harm as I smiled at her. Soon we were engaged in a conversation, Mainly complaining that we had a...
