Tides Of Another Time Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Drowning beneath waves of sorrow, letting myself be pulled
below the surface by the undertow.

Seeing visions of you holding me tightly as I close my eyes
and rest on the ocean's bottom.

No longer feeling anything, not even life, for it left when
you were taken from me by death.

Interiorly being pulled apart by the tides of another time,
memories filling my mind, yet I cannot find my way to you
on the other side of this earthly life.

Letting go completely with one last sigh of relief, now I
too am no more a mortal being upon this earth, for I have
followed you into eternity my dear.
