Poem #18

Like a gentle wave, you swayed against my ship

With a gentle breeze, you guided me forward

As the sun sank into the ocean,

Light quickly turned into an endless night

Your clouds surrounded my night sky,

Covering all the stars

You moved as fast as lightening,

Yet roared as loud as thunder

Your anger, formed as a storm,

Filled the night sky

Your gentle touch turned into piercing thorns

You left me on the sand so sore

As the moon set upon the horizon, 

Dawn broke and filled the sky

You left me on the sandy shore,

Yet I never asked why

I came, I stayed

I fought and cried,

And in the end I was left

Shipwrecked
