The Rise and Fall of

The waves wash softly
Onto the shore of the unspoken and
UNKNOWN
Carrying droplets to form a world
Of sweeping motion
Burying my heart alone
As the waves crash onto the beaches relentlessly
The secrets contained in the salty abyss
UNKNOWN

The sea has always terrified me
When the harmless pails of water splash onto my tear-craved face
Carrying lost words from places
UNKNOWN
The thought of being one of far too many sun-dried grains of sand
Makes me weep in sadness
The sea sees through my secrets
My fear of being forgotten

Wavering upon the edge of moments
The water takes no notice of my tears
Plopping with the ocean tides
And leaving only ripples
As my voice mixes into the
UNKNOWN
