In the stillness

I feel you in the stillness
blueblue of the ocean
catching in my throat
a thousand myths
siren song and tridents
desire burning sightlessly
across the abyss
too far too far

I seek you in the darkness
the blackness said it all
doomed at the start
You turn away
But not before
One by one
The candles flicker out
Reclaiming you heart
your soul your stomach
your liver and your spleen

I had a dream, a nightmare
release floods the dam bursts
forsaken eddies swirl
and beckon and swallow
leaving no trace
all gone all gone
leaving only stillness and
I feel you no more
