A Fishy Tale
I saw you twice the other day
Stirring passion anew
It's easy saying just move on
Less easier to do
Ive always said to others
There's plenty more fish in the sea
But some days it makes no difference
How many fish there be
On the face of it, a small fish
But you took over my whole sea
Never before had I gone fishing
It was all so new to me
You were someone that I longed for
I'd never felt like that before
Some months on, now I'm seeing
The sea has fish once more
But some days you're the only fish
Swimming in my sea
And the fervor that you stirred in me
Will forever be

Good poem Vanessa, and yes, it's a mighty big sea out there.
Brilliant...could relate to it in a big way.. Thank you so much for gifting this wonderful piece.
Some tales are fishy and it pains to recollect-better forget them to become better individual through karmic resolutions
You have handled the concept in a truly imaginative way. Read mine – O Dearest Love –
