The Sea Spirit

She left and went down to the beach
The sea lapping on shore so clear
The tide drawing in from far and near
With sun now dipping out of reach

Along the bay right by the sea
With sand between her toes she trod
With wind embracing every nod
She wandered far so aimlessly

Embracing fears, enticing thoughts
Her busy mind, her ramblings wild
Absorbed in self, her inner child
Lost to a world so overwrought

The moon arose high in the sky
The stars danced brightly all around
Darkness encased her world and ground
She breathed her last and said goodbye

And to this day so it is said
That girl still walks right by the sea
Along the shore eternally
Now misted into time instead
