Letting Go
July 25, 2015
Allow me to be
your anchor. To sink for you
would be an honor
I was never built
To bask in the sun’s bright beams
To bathe in its warmth
You cannot keep me
Above the chortling waves that
dance over the depths
I am cast iron
I cannot withstand the sand’s
perpetual pull
And when the time comes
I’ll slip beneath the waves, that
Frisk amid the sun’s
affectionate rays,
And from the deep I’ll gaze up
At you and smile
