Written On A Wall

Shores

Standing on the shores of me

Between the rocks that hold me tight, and the waves that set me free

Where the sun says his goodnight

And the moon greets me each day

All the clouds are made of silver

And only scarcely lined with grey

The waves all break in rhythm

To the tempo of my heart

Steady and strong, one then another

In a line that never parts

I recede into the ocean

Not afraid of being pulled too far

I just go deeper into myself

Past that shallow surface scars

Cast leagues into my own mind

I'm witness to the storms so strong

That never reach the edge of land

To help perceive the waters calm

My feeling crash into one another here

With force that destruction gives

The power to erase the hidden islands

Where my inner most self lives.
