Unleash Your Full Potential!

3 tragedies

August 26, 2024
I.
you are the waves
of the ocean - of my home
duplicitous you are
captivating surface
the undertow pulls me
the salty smell of the ocean
the wind and crashing waves
have kept me here for years
if Athena aids me
II.
i see you in my dreams
i see you when i can't breathe
i see you when the weight in my chest
is too heavy
i think of you
on golden afternoons
on gray afternoons
and on bright blue
mornings
or starry blue nights
you are the wind
that blows the leaves and shakes the
trees
you toss my hair back
you fill my lungs
time takes
you
takes that summer
time takes
me
away from then
though i will not recover
i will remember
i will hold
you
III.
I watch you wither and wilt
Your purple petals droop
But I've given you the sun
And I've watered you
You've run the hummingbirds away
The bees don't drink your nectar
You want no part of that
You want the night
The moon and stars
