Undertow

Dating after loss...

I lost my fight with undertow 

Of what if and what would be

Forfeit the ancient coral floor 

Promiscuous to my feet

Want I for once to tread my arms 

In seas unsalted by my tears

Where oceans meet the stars

Horizons hope and shorelines fear

To lay this vessel far below

And make no further breath

That might be stolen by delusive love

Or wasted on my death

Yet Poseidon cast me out

To wander vacant shores

To spend my last elusive gasp

Upon a name as sweet as yours
