Sea of Forgetfullness
adrift upon the sea of forgetfulness floating, drifting . . . in an endless swirl colors are so vivid brighter than I've ever seen before spinning in my head green, blues and reds fading, fading . . . into the depths of darkness covering my world in an endless abyss I see my fate written by the hands of death my future lying there impressed upon my raving mind dearest death . . . standing there so close to me I feel your dreaded breath upon my shaking spine sinking, sinking . . . back into the sea engulfing me, I cannot move fear holds me every so tight your haunting laughter makes foolish mockery of my life I must stop this hellish nightmare for fear I will lose my mind floating, drifting . . . away from the sea of forgetfulness back to climb the cliffs of time. ~ art by Nancy L. Young-Houser and poem by Sandra S. Marquiss
