Sea Witch
Her eyes looked into mine
from across the distant sea
eyes that flickered like candle light
into a mist of hazel.
Held enraptured
blood organ attributed to love
stops for half a beat.
Air caught within the throat
my pulse thumped within the
vein.
Entangled in the woven spell
I thought I saw her smile
or was it just a play in light.
Through the winds I would travel
if I could cross the oceans
to come close to you.
IN my dreams I know you call me
I heard the melody echo in my ears
so you taunt me like the fog and
shadows.
Never is close enough
each step in your direction
only draws you farther from me.
You are my illusion
conjured from smoke and mirrors
but still my love manifested
real.
A self-curse placed upon myself
I try to close my eyes against it, but
you are already ingrained within
my mind.
Counting the beats of my soul
until I may lay eyes upon you again
hear your voice inside my bones
to know that I will never have possession
of you, but still you are always
a part of me.
