Solitary storm

The tumultuous wind crashes
Into the water,
Blowing salty sea-spray into my face.
I put out my hand, palm open,
Reaching,
         Reaching,
                  Reaching,
Grasping the wet air and my dreams,
Haunting dreams of yesterday,
Limpid dreams of tomorrow.

My hand is empty,
Not a drop of the mist have I caught.
My hair whips into my eyes as I turn away
From the crashing waves, the wet sand,
The mist of the future.

I shudder inside as I embrace the isolation,
Caught in a solitary storm,
The ferocious raging of my soul.

Poetry of Love, Loss, and the Occult
Solitary storm

The tumultuous wind crashes
Into the water,
Blowing salty sea-spray into my face.
I put out my hand, palm open,
Reaching,
         Reaching,
                  Reaching,
Grasping the wet air and my dreams,
Haunting dreams of yesterday,
Limpid dreams of tomorrow.

My hand is empty,
Not a drop of the mist have I caught.
My hair whips into my eyes as I turn away
From the crashing waves, the wet sand,
The mist of the future.

I shudder inside as I embrace the isolation,
Caught in a solitary storm,
The ferocious raging of my soul.
