For Him I Know Not: Ix
last night by the sea
i held my tears of longing
from falling into the oblivion
the wind was still
and bubbles of perspiration
stood erect on my
sticky epidermis
how much i hoped that
the capricious moon that once
caressed us together would
pull me into her enchanting embrace
to cool my heart and skin pining
at least for one fleeting moment
down below the sea roared
in typical rhythm of a typical
moonlit night and the hungry roar
and the steady ebb and tide
held the moon to ransome
on a clear cloudless sky...
