Annie Cordelia Adams - An Empty Whole

Annie Cordelia Adams - An Empty Whole

I suddenly feel free br like I've reached the top of the mountain, br but not the reaching that has turned the key br br i suddenly feel released; br its the sight of the fair view sky br not the accomplishment, but the feast br br i am openly found free br like the sky is no longer the limit br when that sad song plays, i feel un-marine br br i groped for the sea br for so long a time as was not known to man br i lived an eternity in just two hands br br blue was my color br and red was the blood that washed afar br on the horizon, for which my heart was bore br br an empty whole br for an empty soul; for whom the bell tolls, Ask: br and I will answer, it is I br br toll, troll, free! br every wave trolled its voice br by the Sirens I was mesmerized br br rapid, commanding br now the Sea is but a memory br of what i used to hunger and crave br br in all my lust for its gifts br i held in my hand a thing i would never own br It never came to pass, a tale, unknown br br an empty whole br i stood on the sad, blue shore br though when the tide drew back br I felt as i hadn't before br br an empty whole br now i am left unarmed br though i do not grieve for the Sea, br in my sky, i conceive i have not a single star br br an empty whole br i truly loved the Sea br and now that I know he cannot love br I suddenly feel freebr br Annie Cordelia Adamsbr br
