on the ocean's floor

 

 

 

 

 

 


                      

                 our silver chain 
                 kept me grounded
                             when
 reality threatened to over-power

 anchoring me to you

 

                    alas, reality 
                  weighed us down

                        Over time
      rust encrusts what once was
      a mere fantasy 

 

 but
 the bond that draws us to 
 one another

 still remains untarnished

                    leaving hope
                  for our anchor
                    ~ comatose ~
            on the ocean’s floor

    I love how you cleverly used the different aspects of the picture here, incorporating the rusted anchor with the still silver chain. A very creative take! Thank you for your entry.

    Nice - enjoyed the grounding of the chain, the weighing down, and the bond remaining, hope.
