Ocean of Tears

Lulling us into false contentment the light jades
Across an undulating mirror lightning plays,
Eternally in motion lit by silver blades
Turbulent foam flecked over restless waves,
Gathering souls in an endless quest
To clasp the bravest in it's watery breast,
Ever governed by the moon
Its tidal swell catching those too soon,
Young, strong, weak and old
Pulled relentlessly into the cold,
Trapped forever in perpetual gloom
Dragging the helpless to their doom,
Hearts and souls set forever free
Drowning among salty hold.
Unfathomed are the waters deep and blue
The ocean creating such hullabaloo;
Seeking amusement in lunar slavery
So eager to catch the sleepy unwary.
