My element
Compelled to think on my feet
The challenge
Heavy as stone
And blue
As my eyes
Like now
Look at me
Words were given, phrases, too
All along a rubber band around my wrist
Folded over
Two things I cannot forget
The first
Grace
A good sip of life
Taken when the world pours thick wine
Opened up
Intoxicate me
The second
Dream
Imaginary remains
On the pillow of night
Memories flood in
Drown me
Until I brush yesterdays away
The waves at sea have come to take me today
Words behind the verse: imaginary, element, thick and challenge
