The Wish

Looking out over the balcony the ocean crashing in a lullaby against the rocks.
A young woman stood there while the sea breeze lapped her brunette locks.

She looked over the ocean scanning the blank canvas of water with tears in her eyes.
Counting star by star and wave by wave, braving on cold night skies.

It seemed as though something was missing as she watched the night slip by.
Holding her stomach a little she whispered weakly to herself. 'I need to know why?'

Her pale skin lit by moonlight was cold and she started to feel numb.
Standing there waiting would have been a silly idea to some.

Her soft delicate hands clutched onto a rose that was given to her.
A potion of mix and unmatched feelings began to stir.

Deep green eyes flickered closed as she let the air brace her skin.
Taking deep breaths she could feel the release from within.

Something just seemed so empty with a silence to kill.
A moment in her life was kept so fragile and still.

There was a void inside her heart that was getting bigger as days passed by.
As hours passed more tears fell as she started to cry.

Sighing to herself and taking the rose kissing it softly with a hopeful wish.
She threw it out to the ocean to swim with the fish.
