A Drowned Death

I remember you like yesterday,
On the sands of the shores,
By the big white pier,
And the sailors in their boats,
That sung fishermen songs,
Of tales of heroes,
Long drowned in the ocean blue,
Or swallowed by a fish,
As big as Moby Dick,
Who swum in the waters,
Deep in the subconscious,
As your eyes of lovely coppery,
With smiles of caress and kisses,
Melted my heart into the sand golden,
As I stand in moonlight,
Remembering the taste of salt,
As the breeze blew me,
To stand aside,
And allow my desire,
To die a drowned death.

Excellent lines. The allusion to a relationship between Moby Dick and the subconscious is very good. Enjoyed.
