Empty Shoreline

Two spirits separated at the peak of their love

An Empty Shoreline

 

The music plays like constant waves

Upon an empty shoreline

My words of love that whispered in her ear

Have now turned to tears

 

Smiling, as we kissed and danced together

In nature's chorus line

Time only knows how long will I

Continue to miss her love and affection

 

Every part of my body and soul

Longs for a reconnection

I dare not wait until another lifetime

To unite us again and have her near

 

Spirits of the night, call to her that she may hear

Together we must be

And fulfill love's plea

 

The music plays like constant waves

Upon an empty shoreline

Great prose my friend - emotional, soulful, pictorial wordplay and very moving! I really enjoyed the read and the message within the text (I've been there - so also very poignant to myself) ... :-)

May the music play like constant waves
upon the shoreline of your soul.

The beach can be so many things all at once. I know, I lived on one for fifteen years. But my favorite time to walk it was at dusk and dawn in late fall and early winter. It was deserted then. And if I was happy, it seemed as though the waves, the sky, the moon, the sun, the gulls and even the shells were happy too. But if I was sad or depressed, those same things seemed to be sad too, even though they had not changed one iota. To miss someone as terribly as this at a place that harbors the happiest memories is almost unbearable. I know this too. I've made many requests to the moon to deliver my messages to the soul I miss, both living and dead. I've left a lot of tears in the Atlantic and I'm sure I'll be making her even deeper before my time comes.

Rhayne, I am glad you've been there. In the wonderment of your nature to join in that constant assurance of the lapping waves upon the sand gathered and taken back to the depths of time. Night Poet

Sounds like you might have been there with me and I missed you in the darkness.

[Najam Us Saher]

'Empty shoreline' very well woven term and throughout the poem you managed very well to express the feeling of being along the empty shoreline.

[The Night Poet]

Thank you Najam for your observation and kind words. I'm always honored when someone feels my expression and can find themselves in them.

[Najam Us Saher]

I feel the same. It was my pleasure reading this.
