Back to Night room

Poem 10 of 19

Stare

On a silent night besides the ocean,And I saw you standing alone and stare into the darkness.Dreaming of swimming with the mermaids and nibbling fishesOf asking questions unasked, never meant to be asked..And I stood. Staring. Never knew what to do.All I knew was no sorrow. No sorrow bestow upon this beauty.For no other curse could lay on you. To sadden the heartOf such a beautiful lady far from home. Finding a place in a crowd.Never known of the unknown. Of the undoable. And all I do is stare.And as the night sung along of the tale, the symphony.They never knew what it was. What the wind sung.What the world whispered. But they moved along. Walking.As the world asked them to.Silent as the fish could speak to the crowd. They walked on.To never utter to the crowd. What was in their hearts.
