His Annabel lee oct 8, 2024

  

whenever I come to the Sea

 I think of his Hannibal Lee

 the love of his life

who got snatched away

as if drawn out by the endless waves

 I think of how he longed his whole life for her

Never getting to see her again

though each wave only making him crave

longing to find a way to save her

when if she still could be

 she lost  it in the sea

for regardless how many times

he dives for into the waves

he can’t save her,

though he sees her in each wave

as they come up and with reluctant clinging

 to that prayer he cites

 she is the sea

his Annabel lee

just as she is mine
