Submerged Emotions

Missing image

if only it were so simple to forget you,
denying doesn't seem to erase my mind
from that which haunts so deeply,

images of you still flood my dreams
and I hold my breath against drowning thoughts,
visions rise behind closed eyes
submerging me deeper into lonely waters,

I wake, gasping for your touch
reaching across that distant shore,
with arms longing to hold you
as we sail into...
                                         always.
