The torrents of emotions
created a tempest within me.
I escaped home, to the sea
my refuge.
The darkness of the impenetrable sky,
roar of the undulating waves,
mirrored my perturbed mind.
With not a soul around,
just me,
I let the floodgates of the
incessant tears flow,
merging into the salty waters.
The scintillating pregnant moon
appeared from behind the broody clouds,
she looked down at me with a loving smile.
Captivated by her warmth
I felt my tears dry.
Her benign radiance comforted
my emotional ripples.
The dazzle of luminous stars illuminated my heart,
serenading it, to complement the gleaming waters.
I sat there mesmerized
beneath the surface of the night,
feeling my pain being washed away
until,
the promise of a new dawn embraced me.
