Contentment fills her restless mind

Slowly she steps, without care

Unafraid of the man who is leading her blind

Neptune awaits for her there

She colors his realm with a gentle caress

As he heaves a watery sigh

Her exquisiteness he must now possess

Underneath his liquid sky

Salacia, beautiful queen, sublime

He has fallen for her ruse

Quenched forever in perfect rhyme

She is one with her god, his muse

I want to
Disappear
Blend in
With the drops of rain
Landing
Upon a flower’s petal
Slowly
Making my way
Down the stem,
Into the ground
Traveling
Under the earth
Finding
My way
Into the river
Flowing
Into the ocean
Disappearing
In the waves

For DB…. He’ll always be watching over you  ❤

 

Days go by, more slowly now
Since you left me, here, to stay

God took you to a better place
I understand that more, each day

The sands, on which I find myself
Quietly sitting, reflecting life

Are cold and damp, without you
As my soul is filled with strife

The surf that endlessly beats
Though we two, are now apart

Reminds me of how much we loved
You’re forever in my heart

Still, I can find some comfort
In the storms, when I’m feeling low

For I know you’re watching over me
Each and every time I see a rainbow

Rinky Dink always put up a stink

Never liked it when ladies wore mink

He would yell as they passed

They ran at him, en masse

Picked him up, threw him straight in the drink

Frigid waters enveloped her

Lips, like ice, turned blue

Sinking deeper, drowning

Her final breath, she drew

Eyes slightly open, watching

As she descended, rapidly

Ending all she ever knew

Dissolving slowly, in the sea

She took her life, tempestuous

Like a turbulent hurricane

A tortured soul, free at last

She would never again feel pain
