Recollections of all our yesterdays
infuse these cave walls
with fiery emotions that intensify
at each rising of the tide
until the very rock cries out:
I will not remember you!
Oh to fall asleep
in blissful ignorance
of all that has gone before
and in Medusa's gaze
turn to stone: cold, unfeeling
as these chilling winds
that drive the sea into my Soul,
where still you dwell unbidden
in this pink spray: pink,
the colour of my accursed undying love.
Very deep, Ygraine, I can feel this one. You have tremendous talent.
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, you are so kind, Linda...thank you so much! :))
