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

Your love is like the ocean
An endless sea of soft waves
Flowing over me, caressing
Cooling the fire that burns
Inside of me, I hear the roar
Like the tide, it crashes down
Then, recedes, into the deep
Let me drink of you, taste
The saltiness of your skin
The ebb and flow of desire
It knows no depth, my love
Only that we became one
Two souls united, our tiny grains
Blended, with the sands, sublime

Waves churned and water crashed
A rowboat, on the ocean, thrashed
Skies were calmer, to the east
But to the west, there hailed a beast
Clouds of black had filled the sky
No chance for those aboard to try
To make it to land, safely ashore
Seems the boat, could take no more
Winds attacked, from every angle
In the storm, the timbers mangled
Caught, upon the choppy seas
The ocean tossed it, as it pleased
All that remained, was a beacon of light
That shined, ever brightly, into the night

It was quite unexpected, made her unsteady
Weak in the knees, though she knew, she was ready
The icy cold water, was nothing to fear
The wave took her under, freedom was near
She didn’t fight it, it was what she awaited
Back to the sea, where her life was created
No longer wishing to be human, unkind
She knew now, to never leave the ocean behind
