A Mute Ocean
Before:
He waves the sea farewell
Is sure the shore will dwell
He wheels, hardly touching earth,
His arms provoke the sky
As wings about to fly:
Raising a newborn bird.
A swan, yet not about to die
a fenix in disguise
Refuting every lie
Refusing less than high
He writes his muted life away
Remembers life on earth
A life of lack and dearth
A miss that always stays
After:
He keeps his words inside
They too will always hide
