The Mag -124


I’ve set down anchor
in the sea I find myself in.
Not the one,
I would have sailed
by choice.

It’s the wind
that blew me here.
My course altered
from navigation
carefully plotted.

Tossed into the deep
I am surfacing,
to merely float in place.

White flag surrender.

Night Wish

 

                                                    I’ve come to gaze upon a star,
                                                    and wish you back to me.
                                                    All pain has been forgotten.

                                                    The wounds have healed,
                                                    the heart repaired.
                                                    My arms are open wide.

                                                    I’ll wrap you tight in love’s caress,
                                                    until we greet the dawn.
                                                    Then I'll have to let you go.

wrapped in red glory
floating essence on the wind
staining innocence
