Depths by Nicol Gowar

Poem

I see the depths of you lurking
between the cosmos,
abandoned by Serendipity and Fate —
a yearning left in time’s kiss.

Sometimes that smile of yours
is merely a farce to force onto
unsuspecting victims of
the ruins of your path.

She seems to linger
looking for a line to your
depths —
a submarine left along
along the crags of your cheeks.

Time has caught up with you
she is a temptress who
has played her game,
danced her last tango
with the depths of your
soul.
