Alone Poem by Eddie Dean
Alone
Gritty sand graces my back
The stars mock my surrender
Though they understand my plight
The waves of the tide crash and break
They sound hungry
Like the stars, I lay stuck
My celestial counterparts glimmer
I can hear their laughter
They know loneliness
Though it is learned over millennia
My severance is still fresh
Once part of a whole
Now food for the waves
Their cool touch enrobes me
I can hear my heart beating
Yet it is still broken
She was ripped from me
Most of my heart went with her
The hungry tide claims my face
I shut it out till I burst
It burns my lungs
The stars wink though my casket
I hear them laugh
The world fades
She is calling me
