Beautiful Water

Perfect Hue

Twilight Sea

In this world, beneath the clouds, and between daylight's shadow, exists a vast sea.

A spanning sea filled with all humanity’s lost sympathy.

It flows on the border of life’s majesty, magnifying its beauty and intensity.

A sea that stretches farther than any eye could see sings a song a misery.

It trails a path of ebony and cries for our souls to be free.

This river pours and flows like any other body of water would.

Yet it reflects nothing, pitch black as the moment it appeared, still, some wonder what if it could.

In blindness, we wonder and in thoughtlessness, we ponder.

Now, this overflowing sea of shattered destiny drifts in midnight’s requiem and takes shape.

Engulfing all that is light and shadow, its waves crashing alongside the shore like that of fabled echo.

All sight is cut by the rays of intertwined light, now beams of twisted light race across the sky.

The display reveals a silhouetted message, in which the sea speaks. The feeble hearted streak and the message read.

{Dawn not the trails of existence, live not in evils assistance, and give not your fruit to the forbidden king}

All is silent the sea shrives at the sad sight it partakes, and vanishes between drifting shadows inverse light.

Hmm are you too confused by its message or do you understand?

The sea relays a message and hopes we heed, you the fools who would sell their own seeds to deal with evils misdeeds.

We drift in time with the sea entrenched by its mystery, now night falls and all tire.

We a race that live on nothing but crude desire or anything for higher

I think to myself if a new day ever comes will we finally wake up!
