TSUNAMI POEM WITHOUT A NAME
The silent ocean
suddenly a wall of destruction
Sleeping in the soft sand
mass grave
1000 upon 1000's of souls
brilliant flash of light
spiraling in a world between worlds
Fragments of pain
deep into the heart
Mounting numbers
of lifelessness
Empty shells
Larger then life
proportions
All I got to offer is
hope
in those darkest of times
All I got to offer is
oceans of joy
as dawn breaks
