The Girl Who Emerged From the Sea

Broke my heart

not because I was

Star-eyed and naive

The girl who made

me mad in love

Was always just

Around the corner

The girl who ruined

her mind was my neighbor

I suppose I loved her

One girl I wanted to marry

Was stolen as I was paralyzed

A girl I didn’t deserve

Is still my ghost friend

But I found my love

along the further

reaches of the World

And where else

could she be
