Letting you go
You, a precious pearl, slipped out of my grasp Lost in jar of seashells, beyond my clasp So far far away from the shore's dry sands Beyond the endless pier out of my hands You, a shooting star, granted my wish yet When I shut my eyes, all blue does is threat This narrow pier comes with caution with care Just one wrong step, one wrong move leads despair You, an irresistible illusion Stole the nearest supply in conclusion The ocean gives and so the ocean takes Then holding on my love, adds my mistakes Slowly drifting off with the hefty tides So hard to deny, blue tows me, besides You, a fragile fish, from the gratis sea Never belonged in my tank, go be free Like the Titanic sinking further down Resigning with blue, merging as I drown You, a hoax hollow, holds this poem tight Fading away like the blue ink at sight An abyss of tears lead my rock bottom My glum soul amends like spring to autumn You, a slow silhouette don't realise How breathless it is in the smog of lies The blue swallowed me whole, I can't give in For there's hope, a coast, I can't let it win Eyes opened to the pier's promising dawn As I continue to walk and move on
