Ocean's Edge Poem by Maria Kamy Abdool

There is a constant light over my head,
It seems as if the moon is stretching her
Arms out to comfort me
Each time I am lost.
There is delight in the air that hugs my skin;
I am covered with a warmth from
The beauty of the breeze
That carelessly sweeps itself
Down my paths.
There is an angel over my head,
I can almost feel the flapping of her wings
Playing music near my ears.
When night comes,
I am captivated with reflections of a prince,
On his way to take me away.
He will somehow climb up my tower
And shatter the glass windows,
Only to capture me from the thirst I have been
Suffering from,
Day after day.
There is a song that plays continuously,
With soft music that romances the wind
And secretly touches my hand
As daylight seem to fade
Into the edge of the ocean.
