Without a Voice

Horizon

There is none,

The sea and sky

Meld into one;

Day and night

Do blend together

Time stands still

One moment, one forever

Sun and moon

And stars may shine

It matters not

When lost in time

About me feel

My love's embrace

Her cool kisses

Bath my face

She holds my heart

And thus my soul

She takes my life

Through sweet cajole

The sea and I

Will lovers be

For now

For all eternity

========================================

Inspired by the masterful music of Skully; his newly releced CD (where I got my title with his permission) "Without a Voice". More directly from the song "Arduity Sailed by"; wonderful music creating wonderful images within the mind's eye.

I was filled with memories of long days and nights at sea; going to or returning from somewhere my nation thought I should be. Quite alone with my thoughts and no voices%u2026 save the ones inside my brain, finding my escape.

Thanks Skully

~Dave
