Terraphobic

I shan't forget the moment ....
That changed my life forever more....
The day i found her lying ....
Aqueous upon the shore...

Hair of bright vermilion....
Skin of pallid white....
Ensanguined holes within her face....
No eyes to grant her sight....

A child
Ocean born....
A daughter
Of the sea....
Now of
Her home forlorn....
Abhors the earth beneath her feet....

A decade's past and still i ....
See her in my dreams so haunting....
Her tortured cries of pain fill my ears ....
As if in taunting....
The terraphobic....
Abhorrent accident of creation....
Cast from the sea....
In agony without cessation....

I thought her dead until....
Her body shook with mortal fear....
A ragged breath was drawn....
Her face was stained with blood and tears....

As i stood gazing....
At this huddled mass upon the sand ....
I cried in terror for....
She'd been struck visionless by her own hand....

A child
Ocean born....
A daughter
Of the sea....
Now of
Her home forlorn....
Abhors the earth beneath her feet....

A decade's past and still i ....
See her in my dreams so haunting....
Her tortured cries of pain fill my ears ....
As if in taunting....
The terraphobic....
Abhorrent accident of creation....
Cast from the sea....
In agony without cessation....

Locked in this tenebrous cell....
Her home in lieu of the ocean ....
A face so blank and cold....
A hollow voice with no emotion....

We called
Her mad for she ....
Despised the world that we so cherish....
Yet for no more than spite....
The denizens of land shall assign themselves to perish

A decade's past and still i ....
See her in my dreams so haunting....
Her tortured cries of pain fill my ears ....
As if in taunting....
The terraphobic....
Abhorrent accident of creation....
Cast from the sea....
In agony without cessation....
