HER SEAS

the fight has left me weary,
teary eyed with emotions
reserved for braver men
and her nails are red again
from the deep wounds she has inflicted,
I am restricted
to her beauties embrace,
I have touched her mirrors
and have lost face
in her woven design,
her touch sublime
like snow through miseries windows,
the widower of her devotion
an ocean best left
to the dead sailors of the sea
I am on wounded knee
balancing on the unsteady planks
of her mind, in her chimes,
the death of time,
holds no ground,
love holds no bounds,
only the traps of her beauty
her unsoothing melodies,
my self made remedies,
tripping stupidities
in love with demons of lust,
I, in the cusp of mercy,
but I am not worthy
for she casts her loneliest lights...
for the dead sailors of the sea

[Coyote Poetry]

A powerful tale of sea and life. I like the artwork. I sat many nights at the sea. Just to watch her was a honor. I believe the sea must be respected. Or you may lose everything to the sea. I like the how you described the mercy and the loneliness of the ocean. Thank you for the excellent poetry.

The lyrical onslaught of the rhythm drives the theme home. The structure of this poem shows that it was no coincidence, but design that makes it so powerful. The imagery placed a dark cloud over hope from the beginning, but make you care about the speaker. Many of your skills came into play here. Bravo!

so beautiful and charming

[Kenneth The Poet]

This is melancholy at its finest, and the rap vibe gives that extra flavor. Rene, you are wise to many things and you pen about them in the finest ways.

[Beautifully Tragic xPoe..]

Perfectly emotional and almost gothic piece. Beautifully written.
