Picture Prompt #2

***This is the 2nd picture prompt from John over at The Eclectic Contrarian. 

Also the Word of the Day Challenge. ***

Sorrowfully

my eyes drawn to the never ending 

flow of water

that surrounds my castle of sand.

I long for 

yearn for

ache for your return 

night after night

only hearing the lap of water

lull-a-bye 

sweet good night.

Gaze 

sheltered beneath lashes

tear glazed cheeks

heart wracked

destroyed

by the cruelness of fate.

Time lapses

no change in the tide

ebb

wane

full moon pregnant with hope

searing sun

beating down

tiara built of shells.

Siren of the sea

temptress

moored upon my lonely rock

waiting….. 

waiting…..

waiting…..

knowing one day

you will come back…..
