Steam Still Rises from Your Depths

by M. Douglas Hoss

You are hated by a couple of lovers
Who are sailing away,
Disappearing into the mist.
But in the sea’s dust
It is written that
Despite all that has happened,
All that you have lived,
Others will still come because
Steam still rises from your depths.

From: 
"Moments of Temporary Sanity" by M. Douglas Hoss
