The Ocean is Colorless

The ocean I see is colorless,

it is a rolling mass of nothingness… as is my soul.

Feelings of sadness, of wanton despair rush through me as at my empty pallet I do stare.

A picture in my mind’s eye I do see; I must paint atop this vast hopeless sea.

Splashes of colors on the waves quell the emptiness and the strife.

Life has dealt not one, not two but now now three bursts of heartache, pain and unending agony.

The feelings of loss must be set aside aside, a blank pallet is what I must see. Ever so slowly now, the color seeps in, hungrily.

I am lost, swirling like an anchorless ship . Is there no land in sight to

brings my to right.

A rain cloud, a quick summer squall, off and on it does play all the long endless day.

Then I see, a proud rainbow in the sky. Splashes of color now I do see.

Silently the edges dip into the sea, smearing hues of color as if melting and becoming a part of it and me.

The ocean is a vast nothingness of despair no more.

Splashes of color ride up from the floor and crest the waves anew

Bold colors paint the sky an aquatic blue

The bright beautiful rainbow has filled my heart with love and hope for a brand new start.
