Eternity

Eternity

A Poem by Amy Selena

Falling
 Not a soul to catch me
  Blackness
   Steals an eternity
 
      The ghost of your smile
        Whispers to my dreams
           Haunts me in my sleep
             Leaves me wandering in these lies
 
               Struggling to float above a sea of blue
                A vulnerable memory drifts across the abyss
               An unforgettable bond sinks to the ocean floor
             As I catch of glimpse of its reflection:
            Us
 
             A cold breeze says hello
         Sweeps me off the glimmering water
      Away from the blue
    Away from you
 
 A shaken voice
   Shattered and raw
     My heavy heart
        Begins to thaw
 
              Visions of your eyes lost at sea
                  I’m at home in the clouds
                    Greeted by steady breathing
                      While slivers of moonlight penetrate closely above
 
                          I stand on top of the world
                            Looking out below the winding roads
                           And across the frozen waters
                          Hopeful not to fall into its deadly catch
 
                      Yet the starry night shines in contrast
                    Casting silver rays upon the heavens
                 My dreams are free at last
               Flying freely in a perfect paper airplane
 
              But it’s a dangerous flight
           Driven by isolation and fear
        And little did I know that tonight
     From the depths of the sea, your spirit would appear
 
   A rush of warm air betrays me
Leaves me alone with your empty, sleepless eyes
 I’m shot down with the pain I never wished to believe
    When the last word I could muster was “goodbye”
 
Gravity tugs at the last of my strength
   Leading me back to the deathly grasp of blue
      A place I can now call home
        An eternity where I will fall alone.
