Night Waves


My soul
tonight
can feel
the angel's gentle sigh
as the poetic silhouette
of clouds
intermingling
with the moon's absolute light
opens my heart
to the true meaning of letting go

There is a peaceful beauty
in the ocean's quiet noise
as it races upon the shore
to drown
my thoughts
within the never ending rhythm
of the night's waves

My footprints
have disappeared
washed away into a nothingness
that will never again be
so there is no reason to look back
and besides
I know where I've been
my past will always be a part of me
I will always remember
the good
and the bad
but it is the tomorrow
never promised me
that I now yearn for
to see the rise
of morning's absolute light
to open my heart
to the true meaning of beginning anew
