Wandering Waters

Water color wonders drip from my eyes

I am immersed in the currents of quiet

Violently beautiful we swirl around the storm

Away trapped in our sea of pure and lovely agony

Watery screams of joy for a life ended.

Author's Note

I don't know, man. Just in a weird dark place.

"Water color wonders drip from my eyes" - it may be dark to you Riley but you are shining still and phrases like these are proof of that.
I was minded of the star that shines brightest in pulses - the pulsar

Short and powerful. Even though it is dark, it has shades of hope, when you use words like beautiful, pure, lovely, joy. Darkness and light walk hand in hand. Without light darkness wouldn't exist. Am sure you will find your light very soon.

The title , the dark aspect , the wording are all great . Powerful...:)

This has some amazing images, starting with "water color wonders drip from my eyes..." I feel the darkness, but I can see this taking many directions. Odd, it has me thinking about birth - "watery screams of joy for a life ended..." A baby's life as she knows it "ends" in a "watery scream of joy". This is an intriguing piece, Riley!

I absolutely love your thought process. A baby being born never would have even crossed my mind. It's always so fun to see the different views and perspectives on this site. Thanks for reviewing, Rita. You're always so kind :)
