The Sea

December 2, 2013 at 4:00am

I stand in my balcony;

Overhearing the sea wailing in intense;

I go there no more-

After what it had done to my lover before my presence;

I feel a tinge of whisper passing my ear;

Forbidding me to go there;

To bring back the lost memories of a cut out pair;

I stood there in my balcony;

Overhearing the wails;

Like that of a pod of whales;

Impending me to look at its direction;

In my place of contradictory discretion;

To my every emotion;

That laid me there in deep seclusion;

I stood there in my balcony;

Unaware of the beguiling time;

For hours seemed to me like minutes,

And sweet sugars like lime;

Forgetting the past and stepping into the future,

A difficult idea for someone like me to nurture;

But there I ponder upon the things I had to do 

After the death of my other half;

For which now the wails seem to laugh;

The ones that had swallowed my beloved 

Like landing a large fish with a gaff.
