The Seashell and The ShoreA Poem by Namaa HammondTo love is to let go.Broken seashells crash in the bore They land and glisten on the ocean shore As I lost my way swimming into your soul I found myself buried in a hole I want you to understand my dear The gift I sent behind your tears As I drowned, I did not give up on your trust I helped you clean up your courageous dust Your heart breaking tears and dilated eyes Showed me your love in which you would die The further we swam the more I cried Until I let go of the love that finally dried Another pill will bury my sorrows in sand Into the symptom of tomorrow's land Your footprints I walked beside, hand in hand Seems like yesterday we were linked with this band When I let love, I must let go For you were the one whom I bestowed Now I have learned a lesson to be taught Never battle a love that had already been fought Stranded alone I shall remain at sea How long will it take to find the life for me? I will dump another pill down the hole Hoping my guilt and conscious die with my soul Numb my emotions and feed my empty gullet As you said for me, you would jump fifty bullets Like a feather in the wind, you chased me until the end You were the moon who lifted the tides I was the sun giving you warmth and light You set my soul and emotions on fire How could we not beware of nature's dire? I am the pain whom melted your sorrows The sorrows that will make you grow stronger tomorrow Please learn to let go and love will follow © 2015 Namaa Hammond |
