Agonising Moments

Kicking over pebble stones, waves are crashing, boat lights flashing,

Seagulls flying overhead, storm clouds brewing, lifeboats crewing

Close your mind to all that hurts, hands are shaking, heart is breaking,

Take in nature’s song.

Breathe the lightly moistened air, raindrops falling, shelter’s calling,

But, what do people care, thoughts are dimming, mind is swimming,

All the laughter went before, always caring, always sharing,

Tell me, what went wrong?

Now the hands of time stand still, never rhyming, awful timing,

Mindful words keep swimming round, far to late now, hurt him somehow,

Tearing skyward castles down, rain is teeming, pebbles gleaming,

Tears fall to the shore.

Agonising darkened heart, hope now fading, strength is jading,

Soul is cruelly wrenched apart, kicking harder, seeking ardour,

Searching for a way to walk, footsteps crisper, voices whisper,

Stay here by his side.

Here forever, heart in hand, rain is ceasing, wind decreasing,

Pebbles change to softened sand, moon is pulling, tide is lulling,

Here is where I want to be, passion flaming, guilt now waning,

Ne’er to walk away.

Always envy those with lotsa literary juice in them. All I remember about literature is that I flunged it in school. *pout*

If it makes you feel any better... so did I!!! ha ha ha

But then, they made you read Shakespeare at much too early an age, so you ended up yawning all the way through the lessons and the book, because you didn't understand what the heck he was on about. :-)
