I was,
just sailing by
On, the
friendly water
Blue.
As she
followed my wake
Just by my
side
Quiet.
And, as I
asked her
‘Do you
love the ocean, that is blue?
Like I do,
tell me my dear…’
Pondering.
And she
with those full lips
Smiling her
gentle smile told me…
‘Who does
not love the ocean
With its boundless
waves, carefree
Who
doesn’t want to explore its enigmatic depths
even
shackled men do, despite slaving daily as they live’
Surprisingly
So, her
voice ended in a melody
The
sweetest that I had ever heard
With that soft
touch of hers on my shoulder
that made
me wonder endlessly
Always
what would It be like
To
continue without that
And live
as I,
Alone.
I loveless.
