A bundle of black ink
waits by the door.
As it pools, you sink
forevermore.

Ruinous tide turns the bricks underneath
to the sand untouched by sun down below.

Tale of me
doomed by a love unbestowed.
Tale of me
bathed in sorrow and woe.

Anything that touches me
sinks, so very slow.

I know I don’t know.
I know depths uncovered will always
blind me to the depths unknown.

When the wave calls destruction,
it reaps what it sows.
When the moon shines down on me,
I shine too I know.
