The Unforgiving Sea
by Paul G Day → (All Poetry by Paul G Day)
   Rated "PG" by the Author.

A poem about feeling completely lost and hopeless in the face of unforgiving and relentless emotional pain.

 

In the still silence of the deepest night, 
I thought I heard my name. 
But when I searched the darkness, 
no voice there was to ease my shame. 
I returned unto my waiting bed, 
where cold sheets enveloped me 
and there I dreamed I lost my soul, 
when I drowned in the unforgiving sea.

...feeling lost and alone...that's the cruel irony,
sometimes all you need is...to be alone...get
a little free space...being yourself...finding your
way...you need to be a little lost first to find
the missing part...you're looking for and grow
beyond it...An inspiring poem!
Thank you Paul, for sharing your writing
and God Bless!

The poem certainly has a hopelessness about it, most probably caused by the action of the person in emotional pain. I can feel it, and that's all a poet can ask.

I've drowned in the sea that was unforgiving too - and it doesn't seem to want to let me go - but I let it go! Fantastic write here, Paul.

Scary poem. Don't want to loose my soul. Don't want to drown in the sea. But if I had a dream like that I would wonder, "What is this dream telling me?"

I had a horrible dream last night myself. They sure can prey on you the next day and even further.

I think I have drowned in that same sea a time or two myself...-e-
