Sea of separation

Letting go is like being dropped in the ocean
The constant fear drowning, stomach churns at the notion.
A constant state of panic trying not to fall prey to desire
Missing the woman that lit your soul like a raging fire.
Trying to not to think of the smell of her hair
Or the amazing smile she used to wear.
Doing everything to keep from feeling alone
But not being able to escape fantasy of our love being shown.
Dancing in the dark hearts pressed together
Love floating in the wind like a feather.
At last I awaken to the reality that it could never be.
Again and again I'm forced to try to keep my head above the sea.
Destined to forever suffer at the hands of my own heart
As the waves of the sea pull us further apart.
