The Circle Closes

This poem I wrote about someone who made me feel that I was not alone, thinking that she was special wanting to have her for myself, but I was holding on too much and she made me realize what I did.

Inside this dream I realize

How far I took her down

Floating outside this tide

I saw how fast I can drown

Tempted by her wry smile

I took her all in to my own

Those hypnotic catching eyes

Reminded I was not alone

Thoughts about having her

In my ocean made of blue

Her dance charmed me so

How clueless I hardly knew

Fins holding on too tight

That temptress of my dreams

She spoke to me rightfully

Tugging at all those seams

Spoke to me in plain sight

Past all those fake illusions

I knew my water grew still

As she picked my delusions

Humbly so and within right

Beyond my eyes she gazed

I cried out my last goodbye

She floats through that haze

Here I rest in my corner

My oceans still and I cry

She looked inside my mind

And never did say goodbye 

Those tidal pools of tears

Wait for her return once more

At times I imagine her snake

Something I dreamed from before
