Descent and Rise

The sweet sea grasses and eucalyptus scent Cause me to linger in my descent To the moon lit sea with the starry host above. Where the icy waves await To pull me into the trough The trough of deep depression which sucks away all thoughts All thoughts of sun and happiness, of friends and pleasant deeds Pleasant deeds now forgotten in a sea of needless misery. The sweet sea grasses and eucalyptus scent Cause me to linger, reverse and ascend From the moon lit sea with the starry host above. As I recall thoughts of you and your great kindness and care My thoughts elevate me from the black waves of despair Towards the silver stars above and a wish to carry on. |
