Poem


      SEA BLUES

      Look into my eyes
      and search through
      my life's unexplored depths
      What do you find? What do you see?
      Power? Passion? Tranquility?

      I am serenity
      a refuge of comfort
      a hermitage for broken hearts
      a home for lonely souls
      in a world of broken dreams

      I don't have tears to shed for sadness
      for tears flow through my veins
      But I have arms to wrap around you
      and soothing softness to touch your heart

      You can bathe, soak or play around me
      and do whatever your heart desires
      I will be there when no one will
      for I am infinity,
      a servant at your command

      I offer you my world
      my treasures are yours to keep
      You can collect and trade them all
      You are the guardian of my soul

      Yet the shadows of my past
      will still and always remain
      For behind a beautiful facade
      lies a weeping heart within

      A wound so deep, a past so dark
      Lurks in silence awaiting time
      Until then I shall wait
      Until then shall I dread
      Until then...P
