Reflections #14 - The Lonely Chair

Oh lonely chair by the sea

Crying for comfort thanklessly
In it's loneliness it does demand
More than the silent touch of sand

But a forgotten dream it remains
A carrion of incapacitated pains

Drowning its sorrow in empty shells

Even as evening tolls its bells

The tide calls to it to come near

But even its pleas are not to hear

And beautiful yet numb the waves 

Cover another day's graves

Twilight approaches and darkness nears

Revealed are all of the worldly fears 

For in the end we are all lost
Only the lonely chair knows the cost
