In WavesA Poem by df
She sung in waves
that came crashing onto shores of quiet sands. And the undertow swept quickly, dismantling balanced dunes, cutting through stone. She pulled me into the depths where the light could no longer dance. Neptune blue coursed through our veins and sweet ambrosia loved my arteries. The Drowned Gods embraced me and my lungs made love to the salt of the sea. Yet, I was not blinded by depth. My eyes saw as if sodium did not burn them and as if oxygen still coursed through my vasculature. Gills I had formed, maybe. They gave me strength to accompany her voice with sounds of my stringed instruments. I sang: "I wish to stay with my heart which has been lost to the sea." © 2013 df |
