YOUR LETTERS FROM THE SEA
(August 27, 2009)
An ink stained paper
With words lost in time
Flew onto the window
Of my darkening life.
The words were your story
Of your journey through time,
Of your days on that vessel
Slipping by from my life.
A skiff on a giant,
You waved your good-bye,
Got lost in the ocean,
Hid away from my eye.
And the memory of you
In the waters of ink
Are the stains I swim through,
To feel you, to think.
