VIRB

It dances seductively about, cold, dark, and deep
Tempting me to rejoin its ebb and flow
In regular oscillations, the gulls come and go
But go it does not, wanting eternal sleep
I see it's every move, despite its attempt to creep
A lone constant, my only true friend
Backs all turn, even with emotions I extend
It's all I have left, yet I do not weep
Tiny sandy legacies erased by a gentle leap
Like nothing ever happened, a clean slate
The end of a cycle, a peaceful final state
Leaving, having gotten all it came to reap
