The Island

In your envy and seduction,
you danced perfectly.
Wrapping fingers, vines and strings
around my heart.
The quicksand.

When I'm older and jaded,
I'll look back and laugh.
Wondering where I went wrong,
in playing my part.
The haunted.

Simply put, you were the best
and the worst possible thing
that could've happened to me.
The wreckage.

In the end I'm nothing more
than a heartbroken wanderer,
married to the sea.
The island.
