Seas Subsided
Ocean's brine collides
and threatens to capsize
my entire island.
Wild tides violently writhe,
striving for sky highs,
waves and wake
annihilate horizons.
Darkness disguises,
only outlines
for tired irises
to try finding
while dilated
behind eyelids,
hiding nighttime's crimes
inside blindness.
But guiding signs smile,
morning's light shining
still reminded;
so sublime
when stormy seas I've survived
have finally subsided.
