In the sea of ocean's nightmares.

The salt of the sea

healed no wound

of a bleeding heart,

but beneath the haunting sea

of love's intakes

lies the casualties

neglected in Davy Jones locker.

Where the air is thin,

and the shadows dark

in the haunted harbour of mind

through closed eyes

the ghostly entities travel

through synaptic endings

of a dream floating

in a sea of memories

casting adrift those lost

on awakening.
