shelter

in #poetry9 years ago (edited)





An ocean of darkness


flows around us.


The walls of the house

are thin.


Fish faces peer in

at the windows.


Trees sway like seaweed

outside in the wind.


Darkness and rain

surround us,


You shelter in my arms;


The light from the candle

casts a shadow


Of our fears upon the wall.
