Silhouette woman

Indigo waters

Up against the tides, so in wrath

the sea shell had no will of it's own

tossed tumbled

side to side

entering the indigo waters wild

of the foamed sea

a part of oceans vast

till it found itself in the looming

darkness of the silent side

the drops of pearl waters held close to its heart

afraid to be a part of the darkness

lest they part

softly it held on to fervent hope

but....

as in the Time's chest of withheld promises

never coming to fruition

the indigo waters ice cold knew

as they waited for the sea shell

in wicked lures of their sandy tombs.
