Moonrise on the Ocean

Poetry

The uncertain figure of memory.
The soft sad color of meaningless moments.
The whispered curse of happy dreams.
The once, the wish, the kiss, the vague.

The paralyzing movement of moonshine dress.
The delicious rapture of shared swift glances.
The dancing tears of denying eyes.
The quest, the song, the words, the longing.

The nervous strands of sandy stars.
The scentless aroma of uneasy breeze.
The warming touch of iced sea mist.
The night, the sea, the me, the alone.
