The Lady in the WaterA Poem by I Cast a ShadowAlone I sat; looked up and said There no one here " I must be dead Then She came; and She was here I knew Her being stole my fear She swam in a sea of Death ‘n Doubt While I watched from the port of my faithful boat My Lantern was lit with a dim, warm, glow That shown her flesh and it was so Beautiful t’me alone t’view I held out my hand " I thought she knew That I could give her the warmth I held She held out Hers and cast a spell My ship shook vi’lent " and I fell I sunk down into her doubtful well My light staid " and she swam close And together we swam down from the coast We never parted because she knew The light I cast was what she never knew. © 2013 I Cast a Shadow |
