Written by TheNightSyde and Hastywords
She stood on the sandy shore
Watching the tide play rock a bye
Feelings draining, drowning
Being washed out into the sea
The turmoil in her soul
Reflected by stormy waves
She knows the time has come
And by morn she must away
Away to where she belonged
With loved ones she had lost
Lost upon this very sand
Lost in these very waves
Her whole life shattered
In mere seconds to count
Waiting for the right moment
Feels like she’s already fading
Fading with each retreating surf
Cycling endlessly at her feet
Closer she steps to the edge of life
Craving the healing of the waters surge
She feels her hands clenching
As she holds on to thin air
Her breath comes in shallow gasps
She walks into the ocean and stops
She welcomed the rising tide
Felt it cleansing her regrets
Painful memories swallowed
As the ocean and her lungs met
Everything will be alright
She whispers quietly to herself
Finally at peace now inside
She can leave this world behind
Ok, I need some clarity. Was this written by Night Syde alone, or another collabo?

Ok makes sense. So this blog is basically about writing poems?

No it’s mostly poems. I don’t really know much about writing or poetry. It is basically my outlet for my emotion. And I’ve made some friends 🙂
