Obsidian Ocean (My Heart)
Jennifer Jacob |
I can see it- another agony in disguise-
beckoning me from the sea of nothingness
as I float out here on a piece of driftwood
frantic for the shore.
Weeping with the sea-maidens
we close our tarnished sunset eyes
and fall
 Fall
FALL
into the velvety black of oblivion
where time and sound cease to exist,
but for the faint traces of my name being called in the distance…
I swim in the void like a diver in an obsidian ocean,
unaware of the things passing by
and caressing me-
caught totally unaware as a hand grabs my leg
and pulls me up,
Up,
UP,
from the depths of the warm solitude,
through the shaky waters
and to the icy surface,
sputtering and struggling for air, clutching my plank,
only to realize that I am farther than I was…
