He Calls

Stars tremble in lustrous waters
on a radiant moonlit night
capturing the quaking essence
of my soul’s divisive plight.
Come to me my sweetest love
I only feel the call of my name
burying itself deeper within
full of hot passionate flames
Mesmerized by an ethereal voice
singing a haunting love plea
As I fall, there is only cold wind
and the acrid taste of the salty sea.

How sad, separated from your lover by a chasm

Sounds like the haunting call of one passed on calling you to come join him!

I understand better after reading the comments (tried too hard to interpret the artwork). This is lovely and haunting…a poignant fall!

This was an awesome piece. A wonderful opening and with a perfect ending like an exclamation point.

Thank you, it’s Andrew Right? I am happy you got it. I think some struggled with where/ what this was.

Yes it is Andrew, unless you prefer Drew.
This was an excellent piece from start to finish. I hope you don’t mind me saying, your work is consistently on another level.

I am so touched by your words, truly. Drew it is. I’m Linda, but you probably know that already. 🙂
