Sea of indifference


by Kerry Johnston


Sea of indifference

Coming and going

Never committing

Like a fickle lover that erodes a hopeful heart

Every promise a grain of sand misplaced

Buried deep, then forgotten

 

Calm and serene one moment

Tormented the next

Untold tragedies you conceal

Vast treasures you claim

Abundant in riches as only Mother Nature can bestow

All but coveted by your dark depths

 

Salt of the earth, you cannot quench a thirst

You surround, yet you cannot embrace

A power so immense

No being can withstand your wrath

 

Sea of indifference

Where is your soul?
