Evening of Moonlit Splendor

by Amber "V" Moonstone

June 18, 2009

The evening unfolded
hot and humid and cloudy
The ocean hummed
as I walked along the shoreline.

Missing the sound of the waves
crashing gently on the shore,
I thought of you,  wondering
what you were doing at that moment.

I cried out to the Universe,
please Universe send him to me,
I don't want to be alone any longer.
I have waited long enough.

It was silent, except for the sound of the waves.
I felt connected once again to the ocean,
Why did I abandon this connection, I asked myself.
This place where I always found solace.

I began to ponder why?
Why have I forgotten where I belong?
When did that all happen?
I thought for a while and cried salty tears.

I was punishing myself,
for feeling insecure and alone,
not allowing myself to live,
and that was unacceptable!

I sat upon a rock jetty,
looking at the Moonlit splendor
gazing out at the darkened ocean,
and released all my fear and doubts to the Universe.

It was a cleansing of the soul,
and a releasing of negative energy
that has stolen my creativity,
and life it self.

I made a promise to myself,
to begin to live again,
and not look back at what was,
to live in the moment, and

to look forward to what will be!
